FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Elite Inspections have a range of services that you can customise to get the inspection that
best suits you.
Building Inspection:
- Evidence of urgent and serious safety hazards
- Evidence of major defects
- Statement regarding extent of minor defects, these are items that would usually be rectified within the bounds of routine maintenance
Building and Termite Inspection
This service includes the above items but adds on evidence of termite activity, current or
old as well as any other timber pest damage like borers. We also identify if there are any
conditions which are conducive to or attractive to termite activity.
Premium Building Inspection Package
Many people are unaware that a building inspection excludes electrical, plumbing and gas
systems which are arguably as critical and often as expensive as the structural or building
defects we identify. You need to be a licensed plumber (incl gas) and / or electrician to
comment so whilst we will let you know if – in our experience as builders and building
inspectors – there is anything abnormal, the most reliable form of an Inspection is a
Premium one. We will arrange for licensed and insured plumbers and electricians to also
inspect the property, collate their reports and provide you with information like:
- Evidence of non-standard or non-compliant works
- Current condition and type of systems installed
- Any defects identified
- Any safety hazards identified You are also able to speak with these inspectors and seek clarification of any points raised.
When we attend a building, we do a full inspection including:
- All internal areas – every room, including storage areas etc.
- Inside the roof space (sometimes called roof void or cavity)
- Underneath the floor (unless it’s a concrete slab)
- On the roof of single storey buildings. Should you require 2+ storey roofs inspected, prior arrangements should be made for safety reasons.
- All external areas
- The site (eg. decks, fencing, carports etc.)
Qualifications vary from state to state as each state has different licensing requirements for
Building Inspections. Inspectors may also have specialist or advanced qualifications in
additional areas depending on the individual. However all Inspectors:
- Complete a Building Inspection Course with Australian Inspectors Institute
- Complete additional training including inspection specific training courses
- Have a trade qualification or undertake extensive training with another independent inspector
- Have extensive prior construction industry experience
