Premium Package Inspection in Waterways

We identify visible hazards that can pose immediate risk, such as unstable balustrades, trip hazards, unsafe access points and obvious fall risks. In Waterways, outdoor entertaining areas near water features and slick paving can make surface condition and handrail integrity especially important.

We inspect accessible areas for evidence of termites and other timber pests, including mudding, damage, moisture-conducive conditions and entry points. Waterways landscaping, retained garden edges and irrigation can create favourable conditions, so we pay close attention to timber-to-ground contact and damp perimeter zones.

We visually identify materials that may contain asbestos and note typical locations where it may appear in older components or renovations. While many Waterways homes are newer, some properties incorporate recycled materials, older sheds or legacy linings, so a visual check helps you plan safe testing and removal if needed.

We look for visible mould growth, moisture staining and conditions that support mould, including ventilation and condensation indicators. Waterways’ proximity to water and shaded courtyards can increase humidity indoors, so we focus on bathrooms, laundries, wardrobes on external walls and any rooms that smell musty.

We conduct a visual-only assessment of accessible electrical components for obvious defects such as damaged fittings, exposed wiring and non-compliant-looking installations. In Waterways townhouses and renovated homes, DIY changes and ageing fittings can introduce risks that a buyer won’t notice during an open inspection.

We take precise digital floor level readings to map variations across the home and highlight abnormal changes. In Waterways, this helps distinguish minor settlement from patterns that may suggest ongoing movement, drainage influence or structural deformation across slabs and tiled areas.

We confirm the visible presence and general placement of smoke detectors to highlight gaps that could affect occupant safety. For Waterways rental-ready purchases and family homes, this check helps you identify where additional alarms may be needed before move-in.

We perform electrical polarity testing to help detect potentially dangerous wiring issues in accessible outlets and circuits. This is particularly valuable in Waterways where cosmetic renovations can hide electrical shortcuts behind new finishes.

We identify smaller defects that can become expensive if ignored, such as deteriorated sealants, minor leaks, sticking doors and early corrosion. In Waterways, minor moisture-related defects often escalate quickly, so documenting them early helps you prioritise repairs and maintenance.
