Who We Are

- Home Structure Inspections
- Our Knowledge of Adelaide's Unique Building Environment
- Our Commitment to Providing You With the Best Possible Service
My experience comes from over 30 year of building and pest inspections in Adelaide, combining skills in building with a Cert IV in Building and Construction, landscape construction and building inspections. I'm asked all the time "do I need a building inspection" I learned more in 12 months of building inspections than I ever imagined. It's the experience of seeing fault after fault, what is indicative of the age and construction type, current regulations and new technologies available.
Building and Pest Inspectors Adelaide use state of the art Thermal Imaging Cameras help us detect a myriad of issues including, unwanted pest activity, thermal leakage (whether hot or cold), circuitry issues, moisture intrusion, insulation deficiencies, air looks, electrical hot spots, HVAC system issues, structural anomalies including detection of hidden framing or voids behind walls and ceilings.
10 reasons why you should consider getting a building or home inspection done before making a purchase or renovation decision:
1
Identify Hidden Issues
Inspections can reveal problems that may not be visible to an untrained eye, such as structural damage, plumbing leaks, electrical issues, or mold. Uncovering these hidden defects early can prevent costly surprises.
2
Ensure Safety
A home inspection ensures that the property is safe for you and your family. Inspectors check for potential hazards, like faulty wiring, poor ventilation, or gas leaks, which can pose serious health risks if left unaddressed.
3
Negotiation Leverage
The findings of an inspection can provide you with solid grounds to negotiate a better deal. If issues are found, you can request repairs, a price reduction, or credits from the seller, saving you money and stress.
4
Forecast Future Expenses
Inspections give you a clear picture of the property’s condition, including the age and functionality of systems like HVAC, roofing, and appliances. This helps you budget for future repairs and maintenance, avoiding unexpected financial burdens.
5
Ensure Compliance with Codes and Regulations
Professional inspectors are familiar with local building codes and regulations. They can identify any parts of the property that do not comply with current standards, giving you a chance to address these issues before they become legal problems.
6
Peace of Mind
Knowing that a professional has thoroughly inspected the property can provide peace of mind, making you more confident in your investment. This can reduce anxiety and allow you to make a more informed decision.
7
Avoid Health Risks
Issues like mold, asbestos, or radon are not always apparent but can pose significant health risks. A home inspection can detect these problems early, allowing you to take necessary action and protect your health.
8
Plan for Renovations or Upgrades
If you are planning to renovate, an inspection provides crucial information on the structural integrity and existing conditions of the property. This helps you understand what needs to be fixed or upgraded and what areas you can safely enhance.
9
Meet Mortgage and Insurance Requirements
Many lenders and insurance companies require an inspection before they approve a loan or provide coverage. This process helps protect their investment as well as yours by verifying the property’s condition.
10
Get an Objective Evaluation
An inspection offers an unbiased, professional assessment of the property. This objective viewpoint helps you look beyond cosmetic improvements and accurately assess the true condition of the home.
