About pre-purchase building inspection
A pre-purchase building inspection is a visual assessment of the property against the relevant standard, reporting on structural condition, roof, walls, wet areas and safety hazards so you know what you are buying. It is one of the cheapest ways to avoid a costly surprise. Book it during the cooling-off or subject-to-inspection period.

A good inspector will quote pre-purchase building inspection clearly: labour, materials and callout itemised, licence details offered without prompting, and a realistic timeframe for McLeans Ridges. If a quote is dramatically below the others, ask what it leaves out. There is usually an answer.

Quick answers
How long does a building and pest inspection take?+
The on-site inspection of an average home usually takes one to two hours, and most inspectors deliver the written report the same day or within 24 hours. Ask about turnaround before booking if you are working to a tight contract deadline.
What does a building inspection cover?+
A pre-purchase building inspection is a visual check of accessible areas covering structural elements, roof, walls, floors, wet areas, and safety hazards, reported against the relevant standard. It does not open up walls or cover items behind finishes. The report notes major defects and areas needing further advice.
Is a pest inspection separate from a building inspection?+
Yes. A timber pest inspection specifically targets termites, borers and timber decay, which a building inspection does not fully cover. Most buyers order a combined building and pest report, which covers both in one visit and is cheaper than booking them separately.
