Identifying Any Significant Issues
A New Home Inspection is a Combined Building and Pest Inspection.
Combined building and pest inspections are undertaken by a licensed builder who will identify any structural defects, safety or pest issues that may devalue the property in accordance with the Australian Standard (AS 4349.1-2007).
We also use the latest technology to help identify the presence of moisture within the dwelling. We will identify signs of water leaks from water pipes, baths and shower stalls. Identifying these issues is high on the list of priorities as moisture is one of the major causes of damage to a dwelling. Moisture can create conditions conducive to timber pest attack and also lead to major and minor structural damage.
About the New Home Inspection Report
Both Building Inspection and Timber Pest Inspection in one straight forward easy to read report.
We are required by the QBCC to undertake all of our inspections to the Australian Standards but pride ourselves in going above and beyond these already high standards. Our chief inspector, Chris, uses his 40 years of building experience as well as the latest thermal imaging and inspection technology to find any defects that could impact on your decision to buy. Brisbane Building Reports undertake a thorough inspection of your new home from top to bottom.
Once the inspection is completed, findings from both the Building Inspection and Pest Inspection included in your new home inspection service will be sent in one straightforward, easy to read report. This will be made available to you within 12 hours. We always complement an inspection with a phone call (in addition to the comprehensive written report), to clearly explain the positives and negatives of what we have discovered.
