Building Inspections

A good pre – purchase agreement makes buying or selling a house easier. Purchasers are not necessarily concerned about a little cost of repair, but they often have a fear of the unknown.

Our building consultants are well qualified to assess and advise on all aspects of weather tightness and/or cladding and structure.

Why do you need a Pre Purchase Inspection?

Purchasing a house is a large investment and so it is important to know what you are buying. Our building inspections include structural integrity and moisture detection, helping to eliminate any costly surprises in the future.

Moisture Testing

Potential areas of water leakage are tested with a non-invasive moisture meter. We have years of building experience giving us invaluable insights into where to look for faults and what signs to expect.

All Inspections include FREE Moisture Testing.

WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO ATTEND THE HOME INSPECTION.

By attending, you will learn first hand about how the various components and systems of the house work together to create a safe and secure shelter for your family and we can provide an ongoing maintenance plan.
