More About Our Building Inspections In Central Coast

Frequently Asked Questions

What common problems do building inspections uncover on the Central Coast?

The Central Coast's coastal environment presents unique challenges for properties. Our inspections commonly uncover salt damage to external surfaces, moisture-related issues due to the humid climate, termite activity (particularly in older properties), drainage problems in sloping blocks, and roof issues from coastal winds. We also frequently identify non-compliant building work and extensions that don't meet current Australian Standards.

Should I be present at my Central Coast building and pest inspection?

While not required, attending the inspection can be highly beneficial. It allows you to ask questions in real-time and gain a deeper understanding of the property's condition. Your attendance options include full attendance for a detailed overview of findings, partial attendance to discuss key findings with your inspector, or having someone else attend to ask questions and relay information if you can't be there.

How long does a typical inspection take on the Central Coast, and when should I schedule one?

A typical pre-purchase building inspection on the Central Coast usually takes between 2 to 3 hours to complete, depending on the size and complexity of the property. We recommend scheduling an inspection as early as possible in your property buying or selling process to allow time for any additional investigations if needed.

What specific areas of a Central Coast property do you inspect for pests and structural issues?

Our comprehensive inspection covers all accessible areas of the property. For pest inspections, we thoroughly examine common trouble spots such as crawl spaces, attics, basements, walls, and the entire exterior – paying special attention to areas prone to termite activity in the Central Coast region. When it comes to structural issues, we assess the foundation, roofing, walls, floors, plumbing, electrical systems, and more. All BeSafe inspections meet and comply with Australian Standard 4349.1.

How much does a building inspection cost on the Central Coast?

Our pricing for pre-purchase inspection reports varies depending on the type and size of the property. For example:

  • $395 for a unit inspection (without a pest inspection)
  • $525 for a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home
  • Up to $730 for a 6-bedroom, 5-bathroom property due to the more extensive evaluation required

Adding a pest inspection increases the cost - an additional $30 applies for a unit inspection

When will I receive my Central Coast inspection report?

You can typically expect to receive your detailed inspection report within 24 to 48 hours after the inspection is completed. We strive to deliver your building report promptly to aid in your decision-making process, and same-day reports are available for urgent Central Coast property transactions.
