Ultimate Guide to Building and Pest Inspections 2025
What Are Home Inspections?
A home inspection is a thorough assessment of a property’s structural integrity and key systems. At Seabreeze Building Co., our licensed building inspectors in Perth examine:
Foundations and Structural Components
Walls, Roofs, and Flooring
Plumbing and Electrical Systems
Roof Spaces, Subfloors, and Wet Areas
We also check garages, sheds, fences, and driveways to ensure the property meets safety standards and identify hidden problems like pests or moisture damage before you buy.
Why Are Home Inspections Important?
A pre-purchase building and pest inspection provides multiple benefits:
1. Identify Structural Issues
Detect major defects that could compromise safety or property value.
2. Uncover Hidden Problems
Reveal issues not visible during a standard property viewing, including:
Termite infestations
Rising damp and moisture
Roof leaks or electrical hazards
3. Negotiation Power
Use inspection reports to negotiate repairs or a price reduction with the seller.
4. Future Planning
Anticipate future repair costs and plan maintenance effectively.
