What Does A Building Inspection Cover?

When you are in the process of buying a house from a seller, you will need to pay for a series of inspections concerning the condition of the property. For example, you may want to call in PCT Building & Pest Gold Coast South to aid you in the essential building inspection of the Gold Coast property.

If you would like to know more about what our inspections cover, we have described a few details of the process here.

Where Do The Inspectors Look?

In a building inspection, the entire property is examined, from the very bottom, underneath the house, to the roof. Both indoors and outdoors are inspected, and an assessment is made of the current condition of the property.

If there has been any work recently performed on the house, such as an extension or electrical work, then the inspector will make detailed notes about this area.

Outside the house

In addition to checking all of these areas inside the house, the inspector will also look at the yard and the boundaries of the property. They will examine the current state of fences and gates, possible future damage from trees close to the house, damage to external walls, and the electrical and water services to the property.

Who Conducts Building Inspections?

There are only a limited number of inspectors in the territory, because these inspections must be carried out by an inspector who has qualified in this role, and has then been fully licenced.

They will also be insured, in order to protect the customers of their inspection. In most cases, the inspector will also be experienced in their role – the key to discovering things which might have been previously missed.

Specific Features of an Inspection

In addition to giving the whole of the house a once-over, the inspector will also be focused upon particular elements within the house. They will search for: signs of cracks in the wall – a possible sign of subsidence, evidence of water leaks or mould, problems with doors and windows including not locking or being stuck, rust on metal areas of the property, and issues with the electrics including failure of power sources, overloading of sockets, and aging circuitry.
