Boronia homes often mix older weatherboard and brick builds with hillside blocks—this package checks movement, moisture, timber pests and older-material risks in one visit.
11 professional inspection services bundled together for maximum value
We visually assess key structural elements for signs of serious movement or failure, including cracking patterns, wall alignment and evidence of settlement. In Boronia, where sloping sites and additions are common, this helps identify whether movement is cosmetic or could point to footing or framing issues that need further engineering advice.
Learn more about Major Structural Defects in BoroniaWe check for significant defects that affect the building’s performance—think roof drainage problems, water ingress points and failed waterproofing indicators where visible. In Boronia homes that have been partially renovated, this is crucial for spotting workmanship issues where new finishes hide older defects.
Learn more about Major Building Defects in BoroniaBuying in Boronia means you can be looking at anything from a post‑war home to a renovated family property on a sloping block. The Premium Package is built for that variety, focusing on the issues that most commonly change repair costs fast: structural movement, hidden moisture conditions, timber pests, and older building materials. For $699, you get 11 targeted checks that work together: major structural and building defect reporting, safety hazards, termite and timber pest inspection, visual asbestos survey, mould identification, electrical visual inspection plus an electrical polarity safety assessment, a digital floor level survey, smoke detector placement check, and minor defects to capture the smaller faults that still cost time and money to fix. ACE Building and Pest Inspections services Boronia from our Ringwood base, so you’re dealing with an inspector who understands the local housing mix and common renovation patterns across Melbourne’s east. You’ll receive clear findings you can use in negotiations, planning repairs, or deciding whether the property is worth pursuing. To book, call 0485 857 077.
Boronia (3155) has plenty of established streets with mature vegetation, varied drainage and a strong mix of original homes and extensions. That combination can increase the likelihood of subfloor moisture, concealed leaks behind renovated wet areas, timber-to-ground contact around decks and pergolas, and movement on reactive soils—especially where blocks fall away from the street. The Premium Package is designed to pick up these patterns early, before they become expensive surprises after settlement.

We look for visible hazards that can create immediate risk, such as unsafe access, trip hazards, unstable structures, and obvious non-compliant elements. This matters in Boronia where older garages, stairs, decks and DIY improvements can introduce safety problems that buyers don’t notice during a quick open-for-inspection walk-through.
Learn more about Safety Hazards in BoroniaWe inspect accessible areas and look for termite activity, conducive conditions, and timber pest evidence using professional methods and equipment. Boronia’s established gardens and timber features can increase risk, so we focus on subfloors, fences, pergolas, landscaping timbers and any areas with moisture or poor ventilation.
Learn more about Termite & Timber Pest Inspection in BoroniaWe visually identify materials that may contain asbestos based on age and appearance, and note likely locations such as eaves, old wall linings, wet area sheeting and outbuildings. Many Boronia properties pre-date modern material bans, so recognising suspect products helps you plan safe renovation steps and decide if testing is needed.
Learn more about Visual Asbestos Survey in BoroniaWe inspect for visible mould growth and the moisture conditions that allow it to persist, including ventilation issues and water staining where accessible. In Boronia, cooler shaded areas and older bathrooms/laundries can trap moisture, so we pay close attention to wet areas, subfloor ventilation and any musty odours that suggest hidden dampness.
Learn more about Mould Presence in BoroniaWe perform a visual-only inspection of accessible electrical components for obvious defects, damage or ageing that may indicate risk. For Boronia homes with older switchboards or multiple renovation stages, this helps you identify signs of mixed wiring eras, deteriorated fittings, or poor-quality installs that warrant an electrician’s follow-up.
Learn more about Electrical Visual Inspection in BoroniaWe use digital measurement to map floor levels and identify variations that can indicate movement, sagging or subfloor issues. In Boronia, where some homes sit on stumps or have extensions added at different times, the floor level survey provides a clearer picture than ‘walking feel’ alone.
Learn more about Digital Floor Level Survey in BoroniaWe visually confirm the presence and general placement of smoke alarms so you know what’s installed at the time of inspection. This is especially useful in Boronia family homes with extensions or converted spaces, where alarms may not be positioned for the current layout and may need updating to meet expectations.
Learn more about Smoke Detectors Assessment in BoroniaWe carry out electrical polarity testing to help detect potentially dangerous wiring issues at accessible points. This is important in Boronia properties that may have had DIY upgrades or older electrical work, because polarity faults can create shock risk even when fittings appear to ‘work’.
Learn more about Electrical Safety Assessment in BoroniaWe identify smaller defects that can still add up—such as deteriorated seals, minor leaks, sticking doors, damaged flashings and maintenance gaps. In Boronia, these issues often appear around older windows, weatherboard joinery, gutters and downpipes, and can contribute to bigger moisture or pest problems if ignored.
