11 professional inspection services bundled together for maximum value
We visually assess key structural elements for signs of significant movement, deformation or failure. In Nunawading, this matters where additions have been tied into older structures, or where cracking and uneven door operation can signal ongoing movement that needs further engineering advice.
Learn more about Major Structural Defects in NunawadingWe identify major defects affecting the building’s performance, such as failing waterproofing, roof issues, or compromised external walls. Nunawading homes with renovated wet areas or altered rooflines can hide shortcuts, so we focus on the areas most likely to leak, sag or deteriorate.

The Premium Package is built for that variety, focusing on the defects that can change your budget fast: movement, water entry, unsafe electrics, timber pest activity and material risks. For $699, you get 11 inspection components that work together: major structural and building defects, safety hazards, termite and timber pest inspection, visual asbestos survey, mould presence checks, electrical visual inspection plus polarity safety assessment, a digital floor level survey, smoke detector presence/placement assessment, and reporting of minor defects that often point to bigger maintenance issues. ACE Building and Pest Inspections services Nunawading from our Ringwood region base, so we understand the local housing stock and common construction styles seen across Melbourne’s east. You’ll receive clear, prioritised findings you can use to plan repairs, confirm what needs a licensed trade, and decide your next step with the property.
Nunawading properties frequently include older materials, later extensions, and a mix of subfloor and slab construction, which can hide moisture issues, uneven floors and past patch-ups. Homes close to busy corridors can also show more wear around windows, doors and external cladding, while garden-heavy blocks can increase conditions that attract timber pests. A package that combines floor level data with pest, mould and safety checks helps connect the dots between cause and symptom.

We check for visible hazards that can create immediate risk, including trip hazards, unstable structures, unsafe access points and obvious non-compliant elements. For Nunawading buyers, this is practical for properties with older stairs, decks, balconies or DIY alterations that may not meet current expectations.
Learn more about Safety Hazards in NunawadingWe inspect accessible areas for termite activity and timber pest evidence, and we note conditions conducive to infestation. Nunawading blocks with garden sleepers, stored timber, or subfloor moisture can increase risk, so we look closely at perimeter timbers, subfloors and wet zones.
Learn more about Termite & Timber Pest Inspection in NunawadingOur visual-only asbestos survey highlights materials and locations that commonly contain asbestos so you can plan safe sampling and removal with licensed specialists. Many Nunawading homes of earlier eras may include fibro sheeting, eaves or older backing boards, making a targeted visual review essential before renovations.
Learn more about Visual Asbestos Survey in NunawadingWe look for visible mould growth and moisture indicators in living areas, wet areas and roof/subfloor spaces where accessible. Nunawading homes with older bathrooms, limited ventilation or past roof leaks can develop mould in corners and behind furnishings, and we document what we can see and the likely moisture drivers.
Learn more about Mould Presence in NunawadingWe perform a visual-only inspection of accessible electrical components for obvious defects, damage or unsafe presentation. In Nunawading, older switchboards, ageing cabling and DIY downlight installs are common concerns, so we flag visible risks early and recommend licensed electrician follow-up where needed.
Learn more about Electrical Visual Inspection in NunawadingWe take precise floor level measurements to identify unevenness and patterns that suggest movement. This is valuable in Nunawading where buyers may notice sloping floors in older homes or where extensions meet original areas, helping you distinguish general age-related variation from changes worth investigating.
Learn more about Digital Floor Level Survey in NunawadingWe visually confirm the presence and placement of smoke alarms where accessible. For Nunawading purchasers, this provides a practical checklist item before moving in or leasing, especially in larger family homes where bedrooms, hallways and living zones span multiple areas.
Learn more about Smoke Detectors Assessment in NunawadingWe conduct electrical polarity testing to identify potentially dangerous wiring issues at tested points. Nunawading properties with older fittings or quick cosmetic upgrades can mask underlying wiring problems, so polarity checks add a layer of safety-focused evidence beyond a visual glance.
Learn more about Electrical Safety Assessment in NunawadingWe report minor defects that can snowball into bigger repair costs, such as deteriorated seals, minor leaks, deteriorating timber or early corrosion. In Nunawading, these smaller issues often reveal maintenance history and help you budget for the first 6–12 months of ownership.
