What is the purpose of a building and pest inspection?
A building and pest inspection helps identify structural issues, safety hazards and pest activity within a property before purchase, sale or renovation. It’s designed to give you a clearer understanding of the property’s condition, helping you make informed decisions and avoid unexpected costs. These inspections are commonly used by buyers, sellers, landlords and agents to protect their investments and ensure transparency during property transactions.
When should I get a building and pest inspection?
Building and pest inspections are ideal before purchasing a property, preparing one for sale, or when you notice signs of damage or pest activity. It’s also smart to get an inspection after major storms or before starting renovations. Regular checks can be helpful for investment or rental properties as part of ongoing maintenance to catch problems early and ensure the property stays in good condition over time.
What’s checked during a building inspection?
During a building inspection, the inspector will assess the condition of structural components such as the roof, floors, walls, ceilings and foundations. Other areas include plumbing, electrical systems (visually), moisture damage, and signs of movement or cracking. They’ll also check externally accessible areas like the roof exterior, garage, sheds and driveways. The goal is to identify issues that may affect safety, liveability, or the value of the property.
What does a pest inspection involve?
A pest inspection checks for signs of termites, borers, wood rot and other timber pests. The inspector looks for visible damage, tunnels, nests, droppings, and conducive conditions like high moisture or wood-to-soil contact. They’ll assess accessible areas including skirting boards, window frames, roof cavities, and subfloors. If issues are found, the report may recommend treatment, monitoring or further investigation by a licensed pest control specialist.
