What is a Pre Purchase Building Inspection?

A pre purchase building inspection provides a detailed, easy to read report outlining major faults in a home. This includes cracking walls, rising damp, leaking roofs and safety hazards. The report also identifies unauthorised work and whether issues can be fixed.

Consumers Affairs Victoria recommends hiring a qualified building inspector to ensure all faults are detected, even those that have been deliberately concealed. If you are buying a property in Melbourne, a thorough inspection can help you avoid costly surprises and make a confident purchase.

>Many people don’t realise that timber pests, such as termites, need only a 2mm gap to access a property and start causing damage. It’s also often overlooked that home insurance typically won’t cover the cost of repairing termite damage discovered after purchase.

That’s why we specialise in pre purchase pest inspections in Frankston. At All Checked Out, we provide comprehensive pest reports covering termites, borers, and fungal decay. This ensures you have all the information you need before deciding to purchase a property in Frankston. All pest inspections are conducted in accordance with Australian Standard 4349.3-2-2010.

Pre Purchase Building & Pest Inspections Frankston

If you want complete peace of mind before deciding to buy, we recommend a combined building and pest inspection. This is especially important because building defects can lead to pest infestations.

Remember, common timber pests such as termites need only a 2mm gap to access a property and start causing damage. It’s also important to know that home insurance is unlikely to cover the cost of repairing pest damage if the infestation existed before purchase.

All Checked Out specialise in combined building and pest inspections in the Melbourne suburb of Frankston. This ensures you receive a comprehensive report highlighting any issues with the property you are considering buying.
