A building inspection in Perth is often combined with a pest inspection and is referred to as a building and pest inspection.
The building inspection report does not include cost estimates for repairing identified defects. Standard building inspections also do not report on minor cosmetic issues — however, if you require our qualified inspector to report on minor defects, please advise our team at the time of booking.
Our team includes both registered builders and experienced building inspectors, each with a minimum of 10 years industry experience. All inspections are conducted in accordance with Australian Standard AS4349. 1-2007.

Franchise Opportunity
Be Your Own Boss
Building & Pest Inspection franchise businesses available. Immediate start. Guaranteed income.
Franchise OpportunitiesPlanning your Perth property inspection
Buying an established home, arranging a construction-stage inspection and documenting a property's existing condition are different jobs. Tell our Perth team the property address, the service you need and your deadline so we can confirm the scope, access requirements and quote before you book.
Choose the right inspection
A building inspection assesses the accessible building condition. Choose a combined building and timber pest inspection when you also need findings on timber pest activity, damage and conducive conditions. Check the agreed scope: one service does not automatically include the other.
Arrange access and timing
Share your agent's contact details and any inspection deadline. Let us know about locked areas, tenants, roof-space or subfloor access, and any concerns you want assessed. For an apartment or strata property, confirm whether the requested inspection includes common areas. Your report will identify access limitations.
Use the report with confidence
Read the findings, photographs, limitations and recommendations together. Ask about anything unclear and arrange specialist follow-up where recommended. For purchase conditions and deadlines, speak with your settlement agent or legal adviser. See WA Consumer Protection's property-buying guidance.

I utilised the iSPECT service for a building inspection report, as I had limited time and required an efficient and reliable service. I was not disappointed. The team were quick to respond and provided a detailed report in a short time. The price was affordable too. I recommend iSPECT without hesitation.
