Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We check for cracking patterns, uneven floors, sticking doors and window misalignment that can signal movement. We also assess visible subfloor conditions (where accessible) for ventilation, moisture and support adequacy, because these factors directly affect long-term structural performance.
We inspect roof coverings, flashing, valleys, guttering and downpipes from accessible vantage points to identify leak risks and overflow points. In Golf Links Estate, poor stormwater control can lead to damp issues and soil changes around footings, so we note discharge points, falls and signs of past water entry.
We assess brickwork, render, cladding joins and penetrations (vents, pipes, meter boxes) for gaps, cracks and moisture pathways. We focus on junctions around extensions and repairs, because mismatched materials and poor sealing commonly create ongoing water ingress.
We examine bathrooms, laundries and kitchens for waterproofing failure signs such as swelling, staining, cracked grout, loose tiles and mould growth. We also check the condition of silicone joints and shower recess detailing, because early moisture issues can become major structural and health concerns.
We identify visible hazards such as missing handrails, unsafe steps, damaged balustrades, trip hazards and inadequate clearances. For plumbing and electrical, we flag visible defects and non-compliant indicators (for example, exposed wiring or unprotected penetrations) and advise when a specialist compliance check is warranted.
We test a selection of windows and doors for operation, sealing and signs of water entry around frames. Poor ventilation and ineffective seals can worsen condensation and damp, so we note airflow limitations and areas where moisture is likely to accumulate.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our inspection service.
In Golf Links Estate we pay close attention to signs of movement (cracking, door misalignment), stormwater control (gutters, downpipes and discharge points), and moisture entry around wet areas and renovated sections. We also check external paving and garden levels that may direct water toward the home. Where accessible, we assess subfloor ventilation and damp indicators that can affect structural timbers and flooring.
Yes. We inspect accessible areas of extensions, decks and altered spaces to identify structural concerns, water entry points and safety hazards. We look for how the new work ties into the original structure, including junctions at roofs and walls, visible support adequacy, and drainage around new slabs or paving. If we see red flags, we’ll recommend the appropriate licensed trade or engineer for further advice.
We won’t take unsafe risks. Instead, we inspect the roof from accessible vantage points such as eaves lines, ground sighting, windows or other safe positions, and we assess internal ceiling spaces where accessible for leak staining, insulation disturbance and ventilation issues. If the roof needs closer assessment due to height, pitch or fragility, we’ll note it and recommend a roof specialist inspection.
They can be, especially where landscaping, paving and downpipe discharge aren’t directing water away from the house. We check for overflow marks, water staining, damp odours, mould, subfloor moisture (where accessible), and visible ponding or back-fall toward walls. We also look at the condition of gutters, downpipes and connections, because blocked or leaking systems can cause repeated dampness and foundation issues.
Book as early as the selling process allows, ideally before signing contracts or before your cooling-off period ends. Golf Links Estate homes can present well during opens, but defects like roof leaks, subfloor damp or poor renovation junctions are easy to miss without an inspection. Early booking gives you time to review the report, ask follow-up questions and organise specialist checks if required.
