Independent Building Inspections Melbourne
When purchasing a home, you need to know the property inside out to make the right decision. Pressure from real estate agents or a time-sensitive auction, or even love at first sight may cause a life-changing mistake when you neglect to inspect the building properly. Failure on this part may rack thousands if not millions of damages for homeowners after missing out on knowing structural defects or worse, a pest infestation. There isn’t a house in Australia that was built without a building inspector. Most builders have a contracted building inspector that checks their work and ensures everything is up to standard. However, there are a number of things that can be overlooked if the builder doesn’t think they are important. If your builder has an inspector they’ve hired, there is a good chance these issues will be ignored in the final checks and you’ll end up paying for them later.

Our Independent Building Inspections Process
Visual Assessment
Step One is a visual assessment of your property. We’ll go over every visual aspect of your site, internally and externally to map out any damage from cracks, mould, defects and more. We’ll test appliances, lights and other fittings if they’re up to standard. From heating, plumbing, power and more, each part is photographed as evidence for your report.
Technical Inspection
Step Two is technical inspection. This involves laser levelling, thermal imaging cameras and pest detection tools. This process allows us to detect thermal anomalies as well as any sinking or stumps, uneven floors, ceilings or walls, and the presence of termites. We’ll cover every room and area in the home.
Roof Space and Subfloors
Step Three is an inspection of the roof void, subfloor and above the ceiling areas to assess for any damage, leaks or structural issues. These unseen parts are some of the most important to check because undetected issues here can escalate dramatically and cost thousands in repairs.
Comprehensive Inspection Report
Step Four is compiling everything into a comprehensive inspection report for your use. We’ll help you understand everything you need with complete information to determine the true value of your property. This report is accompanied with visual aids and directions as well as our professional advice on what to do regarding each issue found. Each home is different and making the right decision on resolving problems will create a major difference in the long term. Our streamlined reporting process allows you to receive your report no later than 24 hours after your inspection.
