BUILDING INSPECTIONS
We leave no stone unturned when conducting a thorough Building Inspection of your new home. Our checklist when investigating structures, from the roof to the foundation, is to make sure that there are no cracks or weaknesses. We work according to a carefully planned procedure:
PEST INSPECTIONS
Our Pest Inspection process involves a thorough visual scrutiny to the interior, including the roof space and sub-floor where access is possible. It also includes the exterior of the property for active pests and evidence of damages. We use thermal imaging cameras to detect the slightest changes and moisture metre detection.
EXTERIOR EXAMINATIONS
We vigilantly examine all the boundaries of the building to ensure that walls and fences are secure. We also check all outbuildings and garden sheds. Our trusted professionals start their inspection from the outside, looking for any signs of wear and tear. Their analysis of building inspections in Mackay initiate from checking to make sure that all pergolas, patios and balconies comply with Australian standards and don't bear any damage. Furthermore, we check all the woodwork, windows and outdoor posts. We will inspect the exterior for proper drainage, siding problems including major and minor cracking and other possible issues.
EXTERNAL ROOF
Our professionals climb from the outside to get a clear picture of what's happening on the roofing. We locate broken and damaged tiles and check for damaged, rusted or worn metal roofing. We examine the security of the guttering, ridges and chimneys to make sure that they are properly attached to the main structure
INTERIOR EXAMINATION
We inspect all internal walls and floors for moisture or structural damage. Our inspector will analyse if there are any signs and symptoms of surface cracking, movement or general decay. We check the ceilings for evidence of leakage, cracking, nails popping in plasterwork and pest infestations. Also we scrutinise the fittings of the windows and doors.
SUB FLOOR
Our Inspector will inspect the sub-floor for wood rotting. We check that the house stumps are not rotting out and all metal stumps are in tact and free from rust and corrosion. We make sure there are no underlying water issues under the house. Also this area encourages potential infestations of termites and rodents. For this reason, we examine if there is any indication of dampness. Since this area requires proper ventilation, we make sure that all the air vents are unblocked and there is no air blockage.
