Why do you need pre-purchase building and pest inspections ?
When you’re making one of the biggest investment decisions of your life, it pays to have an expert opinion any property you are thinking of buying.
Building and pest inspections will determine if there are any issues which may affect the purchase decision. If there are any problems, corrective action is suggested and this information is invaluable in negotiating the sale price or indeed deciding whether to proceed with the purchase at all.
AllPro Pest Control supply separate pest and building inspectors, ensuring you get expert inspections and two sets of eyes, to make sure nothing is missed.

Building and Pest Inspections – General Information
AllPro Pest Control partner with Bayside Lifestyles to provide you with seperate pest and building experts for your inspections. We take our time over inspections – 1.5 – 2 hrs for an average home – to make sure we carry out thorough inspections. We work for you as our customer not the real estate agent selling the property.
As with all reputable inspectors, it is a requirement to have a pre-inspection agreement signed before we can carry out a pre-purchase building or pest inspection. This ensures that you understand what is involved in the inspections and provides you with important legal protection.
It’s important to understand that these inspections are VISUAL inspections. We are not allowed to move any items or damage any surfaces to get a better look. If we have an area of concern we will recommend requesting that the seller allows an additional inspection to address the concerns.
- We provide two separate building and pest inspectors
- Our inspectors are experienced and fully licensed and insured to carry out building and pest inspections
- All inspections are carried out to Australian Standards (AS 4349)
- The comprehensive inspections include indoor areas and outdoor areas within 30m of the main building
- We're happy for you to attend the inspection and discuss the findings with you afterwards

Comprehensive 20+ page reports with photographs and recommendations
multipage reports
Buyer beware! Some sellers will try and hide detects and problems with their property by blocking access to areas. If we suspect something suspicious we will note it in the reports.
Pest inspection Information
The main difference between a pre-purchase pest inspection and a termite inspection, is that the pre-purchase pest inspection is looking for timber pests – termites, borers and wood decay – not just termites.
- Inspections are carried out according to Australian Standards AS 4349.3-2010.
- Inspection inside (room by room), outside, roof void, sub-floor, garage and gardens
- Use of moisture meter to detect leaks or areas of moisture behind walls
- Use of motion detector and thermal cameras to investigate areas of concern (Termatrac)
- Report on the presence of timbers pests, timber pest damage and any construction issues or conditions that make a timber pest attack more likely
- Recommendations on any treatments and remedial actions that should be carried out
The inspection will provide vital information to help you decide whether you should buy the property and what price you should pay. It’s not uncommon for the inspection to uncover signs of termites or termite damage. Check out our blog, Should you buy a house with termite damage?
We used this company for our pest inspection when we bought our house. He was very punctual and professional and did great job. He gave us not only a report but also some valuable information. Highly recommended.”

World class pest inspection equipment
One of our key inspection tools is the Termatrac T3i. It compliments our skills as pest inspectors and provides us (and you, as our customers) with the confidence that we have done everything to check your property. How the Termatrac helps…
- Motion detector: Can pick up the movement of termites behind walls
- Thermal measurements: Can pick up small differences in the wall temperatures which may indicate termite activity inside the wall cavity
- Moisture measurement: Useful for picking up areas of moisture which may indicate a water leak or area of termite activity.
