Frequently Asked Questions


Are Building Inspections Important?

Buying a second-hand car can be a scary decision, and so most people choose to inspect the car first. It can be hard to recover your investment from a second-hand seller, after all, if there is anything wrong with the car. The same is true for homes, and so it is critical that you perform a proper building inspection before you purchase a new house to avoid any pain and heartbreak. Thankfully, no matter where your property is or what type of building it may be, Ironside Building, Pest, & Pool Inspections, the best team of building inspectors in Brisbane, are able to make sure you get the property inspection you need. Complete our enquiry form or call our team on 0416 291 179 to get professional advice in relation to building inspections.

Making sure both the buyer and seller of a property are getting a fair deal is easy with a third-party building inspection overseen by a professional. Building inspectors normally look for a few things while they work, including any signs of structural damage, pest infestation, and legal shortcomings. Unapproved alterations are particularly relevant to most building inspectors, as they are able to use the quality of the performed work to determine whether or not the alteration was registered correctly with the local council and may be able to save some legal hassles for their client by doing so. After the building inspection is completed, then the building inspector is able to pass their findings on to their client, who can negotiate a better price with that information, whether that price be higher or lower. To make sure you are getting a fair deal on property, you should always hire a building inspector.
