Without a thorough pre-purchase house inspection, buyers often miss leaks, termite damage, unsafe wiring, poor drainage, and structural movement that later set back budgets and slow lender approval. We carry out detailed building inspections in Highbury before you sign or during your due diligence, check the roof space and subfloor that many people skip, and give a clear report that lets you renegotiate, plan repairs, or walk away.
We are local to Highbury, licensed and insured, and we inspect to accredited building inspection standards using moisture metres, thermal scanning, and safe access to subfloor and roof space where possible. Many buyers rely on a quick once over or book the inspection after finance approval, which weakens your negotiation power and can leave you paying for pre existing faults after settlement.
