Inspections for Buyers, Owners and Owner Builders in Geelong
Pre Purchase Building Inspection
A pre purchase building inspection covers the roof, walls, wet areas, subfloor and site drainage before you settle. You get the defect list in writing, with photos, while the contract is still cooling off.
Building Inspection
An independent building inspection on a home you own or plan to buy. We check cracking, roof cover, flashings, wet areas and the subfloor, then explain what is worth fixing first.
Pest Inspection
A pest inspection of the subfloor, roof space, fence lines and garden beds for live termite activity, mud leads and workings. We sound suspect timbers and take moisture readings instead of guessing.
Pre Purchase Pest Inspection
A termite and timber pest check on the property you are buying, inside and out, before the contract goes unconditional. The report separates live activity from old damage so you know what you are paying for.
Pre Purchase Termite Inspection
A termite inspection aimed at the places termites get into Geelong homes: mud leads on piers, damp bathroom walls, skirting boards that sound hollow and timber in contact with soil.
Pre Purchase Timber Pest Inspection
Timber pests cover termites, borers and fungal decay. We check hardwood floors for flight holes, bearer and joist ends for rot, and timber fences for workings, then put all three in one report.
137B Owner Builder Report
Section 137B of the Building Act requires a defects report when an owner builder sells within six and a half years of the building work. We inspect the work, list the defects and write the report the sale needs.
