When to call us

Before signing a contract
Get the property's true condition up front, with time to renegotiate, walk away or plan for work.
Before selling or leasing
A clean report makes a sale smoother and stops disputes later. Better to know what's there first.
At the end of a lease
An inspection report documents the property's condition before you hand the keys back.
For strata or maintenance planning
A condition report helps committees budget for timber or pest issues across common property.

Guide
Building & Pest Inspections Sydney: Pre-Purchase Reports
How pre-purchase building and pest inspections work in Sydney: what the report covers, how long it takes, whether you should attend and how to act on the findings.
What does a pre-purchase inspection report cover?
Structural condition, timber pest activity and damage, moisture issues and safety items, the things that affect the value of the property and your decision to buy.
Building inspection or pest inspection: do I need both?
Yes, ideally. A building inspection looks at the structure; a timber pest inspection looks for termite and borer damage. Good conveyancers recommend both before exchange.
How long does an inspection take?
Usually 45-90 minutes on site depending on the property, with the written report delivered within 24 hours. We work around settlement deadlines.
Can I attend the inspection?
Yes, and it's a good idea. On the day we can show you what we're checking and point out anything that will matter later, without the jargon.
What if the report finds issues?
You get clear priorities: what's serious, what's routine maintenance, and what it may cost. From there you can negotiate, renegotiate or walk away with confidence.
Do you inspect apartments and strata units?
Yes, with the common areas reviewed for pest activity that can affect the unit, plus your internal inspection. Let us know the strata situation when you book.
