Basic Package Building & Pest Inspection in Maribyrnong

We inspect accessible areas for evidence of termites and timber pests, including damage, mudding, and conducive conditions like untreated timber-to-ground contact. In Maribyrnong, where homes often have timber features, decks or subfloor spaces, early detection can prevent extensive replacement of structural timbers.

We look for visible safety hazards such as unstable balustrades, trip hazards, unsafe stairs, broken glazing, and other issues that can cause injury or require urgent rectification. This matters for Maribyrnong properties with mixed-age upgrades, where older components can be out of step with current expectations.

We perform a visual-only survey to identify materials that commonly contain asbestos (for example, older eaves, wall linings, and wet area sheeting) and note suspect areas for further testing. This is especially relevant in established pockets of Maribyrnong where renovations may have left older sheeting in place.

We check for visible mould, moisture staining, condensation indicators and ventilation issues in areas like bathrooms, laundries, kitchens and subfloors where accessible. Maribyrnong buyers often inspect properties that have been closed up for sale, so we look for signs that moisture problems are being masked.

We conduct a visual-only electrical assessment, noting obvious defects such as damaged fittings, exposed wiring, and unsafe DIY-looking modifications where visible. In Maribyrnong, this helps identify whether an older home has outdated or poorly altered electrics that should be assessed by a licensed electrician.
