Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We check walls, ceilings, external brickwork and visible subfloor areas (where accessible) for cracking patterns, separation and unevenness that may indicate movement. In Jordanville, clay soils and mature landscaping can contribute to seasonal movement, so we document what we see and explain what needs monitoring or further structural advice.
We inspect bathrooms, laundries and kitchens for moisture staining, swollen skirtings, damaged sealants and poor falls, plus the condition of windows, sills and door thresholds. This matters in Jordanville properties where renovations are common and waterproofing quality can vary between older and updated sections of the home.
We assess roof condition from accessible vantage points, including flashing, valleys, guttering, downpipes and overflow paths. Good stormwater control reduces moisture problems and helps prevent localised foundation movement, particularly where downpipes discharge close to the house or drains are blocked by leaf litter.
For homes with subfloor space, we look for ventilation issues, damp soil, standing water, mould-like growth and deterioration of timbers. Poor airflow and persistent damp can lead to structural timber concerns and persistent odours, and it can be overlooked during cosmetic renovations.
We focus on join lines between original and newer works, changes in floor levels, non-uniform finishes, altered roof junctions and signs of water entry where additions meet the main structure. In Jordanville, extensions and townhouse upgrades can hide defects behind new linings, so we note visible warning signs and areas to query with the vendor.
We identify practical safety concerns such as loose balustrades, trip hazards, deteriorated stairs, damaged ceilings, and signs of electrical or plumbing issues (visible indicators only). These items matter before you buy because they can affect insurability, immediate repair costs and your ability to move in without urgent works.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our inspection service.
In Jordanville we often see a mix of older construction and newer alterations, so common findings include cracking consistent with footing movement, moisture entry around wet areas or older external openings, and workmanship issues where extensions meet the original home. Drainage and roofwater management also comes up, especially where downpipes discharge near footings or gutters overflow. Your report separates urgent items from maintenance.
Yes. For townhouses and units in Jordanville, we inspect the accessible areas of the dwelling and note any visible defects to internal finishes, wet areas, ceilings, walls, doors, windows and any accessible roof or subfloor areas relevant to the lot. We also comment on shared wall and boundary-related concerns we can observe, and we recommend checking owners corporation records for building-wide issues.
Book as soon as your contract conditions allow and the agent can provide access. In Jordanville, competition can compress timelines, so securing an inspection early gives you time to review the report, request further specialist advice if needed, and negotiate while your cooling-off or finance/inspection conditions are still in play. If you have a tight deadline, call to discuss the earliest available slot.
They can. While we don’t measure vibration or noise levels, we pay close attention to cracking, door and window operation, and signs of movement that buyers may worry about in high-traffic corridors. We also look for dust ingress points, roof and window condition, and the general integrity of external cladding and seals. If your concern is acoustic performance, we can suggest follow-up options.
A pre purchase inspection is a non-invasive visual assessment of accessible areas, so it won’t include destructive testing, concealed framing, or detailed engineering calculations. It also isn’t a substitute for specialist plumbing, electrical or asbestos testing. If we see indicators that suggest a bigger issue—such as significant movement, persistent damp or termite risk—we’ll flag it and recommend the most relevant next inspection.
