Why should I use Burleigh Building Inspections?

Unlike many large inspection companies who use contractors to do their inspections, Burleigh Building Inspections relies on Dan Parsons who is the owner and operator of the business.  He is the sole inspector and as it is his reputation ‘on the line’ so to speak, he personally ensures that his standard of work is second to none. Dan provides a personalised, reliable service and operates with great aptitude where his main forefront is integrity. Dan is passionate about the building industry and more importantly people.

Why is a Building and Pest Report important?

Your potential property may be aesthetically pleasing, however it is imperative that you get a second opinion by an industry expert.  A trained expert will investigate further and look for major and minor defects on the property which can include the following:-

• Fire Hazards

• Health and Safety Hazards

• Termite Damage and Structural Issues

• Moisture Damage

• Fungal decay and presence of mould

• Non - compliant building practices and poor design functionality

A good building inspector will be on the look out for homes that do not meet building codes and safety standards, or have aesthetic ‘cover ups’ such as a fresh coat of paint over existing mould or termite damage.  The building report will identify any major or minor defects and will outline the overall condition of the property compared to similarly constructed and reasonably maintained buildings of approximately the same age.

Can I attend the building inspection?

Can I negotiate or terminate my contract based on the findings in my Pre - Purchase Building and Pest Report?

Our Building and Pest Reports are written in accordance with the Australian Building Standards and recognised by Third Parties such as Real Estate Agents and Solicitors.  Provided you have special conditions in place in your contract, our report may help you negotiate price on your home, assist you in budgeting for future repairs and renovations or be proof to help terminate your contract.
