You want facts before you commit, not surprises after settlement. Our pre-purchase house inspection is a thorough, visual, non-invasive building inspection that checks structure, roof coverings, roof space, subfloor, plumbing fixtures, visible electrical hazards, moisture, and pests, so you can negotiate or walk away with confidence.
We spend the time on site to do it right, use calibrated moisture metres and thermal imaging, and back it with clear photos, repair priorities, and plain language. If the inspection is rushed or narrow in scope, you can inherit hidden moisture, unpermitted work, insurance issues, and surprise repair bills that keep growing.
