At Housecalls Building Inspections, we understand the critical importance of making an informed decision when purchasing property.
Our Pre Purchase Building Inspections offer potential buyers a comprehensive examination of the property’s condition, providing peace of mind and security in your investment.
Our team of experienced and qualified inspectors employs cutting-edge technology and a meticulous approach to assess every aspect of the building’s structure and systems. From identifying potential safety hazards to uncovering any hidden defects, our detailed reports equip you with the knowledge needed to negotiate with confidence and make a decision that’s right for you.
Our inspections include but are not limited to:
As Pre Purchase Building Inspectors, we meticulously assess the footings and floors for integrity, checking for signs of settlement, cracks, or unevenness that may indicate foundational issues or soil movement.
We conduct thorough evaluations of both the external and internal walls, identifying potential structural concerns, moisture penetration, cracking, and other defects that may impact the property's integrity and safety.
Our examination of piers and columns focuses on assessing their structural stability, checking for signs of deterioration, misalignment, or damage that could compromise the building's support system.
In inspecting lintels, we pay close attention to their condition, looking for any evidence of rust, cracking, or sagging that could indicate inadequate support for windows and doors.
We scrutinise sub-floor frames and supports to detect rot, insect damage, improper repairs, or any weaknesses that may affect the durability and safety of the structure.
Our inspections of the roof frame involve a detailed assessment for signs of defect or damage, including truss issues, misalignments, and the condition of bracing, to ensure the roof's structural reliability.
In reviewing the ceiling frame, we search for sagging, detachment from the walls, or other indicators of structural concerns that could pose risks or necessitate repairs.
We evaluate any retaining walls associated with the main residence for signs of movement, cracking, or drainage issues that may lead to future stability problems or require immediate action.
Following our comprehensive inspection, we offer a full over-the-phone debrief, detailing our findings and providing clear, expert advice on any issues discovered, ensuring you are fully informed about the property's condition.
