A home building inspection performed by Inspector West is a comprehensive visual assessment of a home’s physical structure and systems. From top to bottom, inside and out, we delve into the areas often overlooked during the buying process, such as roofs, attics, and crawlspaces, leaving no stone unturned. Our professional inspectors cover all essential elements of your prospective home, equipping you with knowledge about the solidity of your impending investment. To facilitate prompt decision-making, we commit to delivering a detailed home building inspection report on the same day as the inspection. This report, rich with images and explanations of any issues identified, empowers you to make an informed and confident buying decision.
STRUCTURE
Here, the main focus is on the Foundation, Crawlspace, and other crucial Structural Components that provide stability to the home.
EXTERIOR
This includes the Roofing System* as well as doors, windows, cladding, fascias, decking, patios, pools, & Fencing.
INTERIOR
We carefully look at floors, walls, ceilings, stairs, Bedrooms, and Bathrooms. The Attic, Insulation, and Ventilation are also inspected.
SERVICES
We assess the home’s Electrical System (including Smoke Alarms and RCDs), the Plumbing System, and the HVAC Systems. Oven and Cooktops are also included.
ADVANCED
Every inspection incorporates Thermal Imaging to identify potential issues related to moisture, leaks, electrical defects, insulation, and more.
*When roofing systems are not entirely accessible, aerial drone photography is utilized for evaluation.
PEST INSPECTIONS
PREVENT DAMAGE WITH EARLY IDENTIFICATION
Our Timber Pest or Termite Inspections are a thorough exploration of your property by a professional pest inspector, investigating all accessible areas for signs of active termites and termite damage. Our inspection process is meticulous and strategic, focusing not only on identifying current infestations but also on detecting conditions conducive to termite attacks. Our comprehensive pest inspection report incorporates the risks associated with termite invasions and provides recommendations on how to address these issues. Thus, we equip you with knowledge to maintain a safe, pest-free environment in your home.
Pre-Purchase / Pest Inspection
A pre-purchase building and pest inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of a property performed by a qualified inspector before a potential buyer finalizes the purchase. This inspection aims to identify any existing or potential issues that could impact the property’s value or the buyer’s living conditions.
New Construction Inspections
Scheduling New Construction Phase Inspections before your contractor starts building your house is the best way to ensure that you receive quality work. We’ll go to the construction site multiple times and report on what we see. This inspection service includes the final New Construction walkthrough.
11-Month/Builder’s Warranty
Your builder most likely included a 12-month warranty against defects. Unfortunately, most homeowners don’t discover serious issues until after the first year is up. Avoid this by working with us. We’ll conduct a thorough walkthrough and will write up any problems.
Home Maintenance Inspection
Your home passed its initial inspection service, but what happens down the line? Instead of allowing your house to fall into disrepair, schedule it for regular Inspections. We’ll check your systems and components during this inspection and let you know what may need a repair or replacement shortly.
