Building & Pest Inspections in Cairns

An inspection typically involves a visual assessment of accessible areas of the property including roof space, subfloor, exterior and interior for timber pests, termites, moisture damage and structural issues. We check for signs of termite activity, timber decay and other pest damage as well as provide recommendations for repairs or further investigation. A detailed report is then provided with photos and explanations of identified issues. This service helps buyers, sellers and homeowners understand their property’s condition and risk.

Before purchasing a property it is wise to understand any hidden risks that could translate into costly repairs or safety concerns. A building and pest inspection reveals timber pest activity, termite damage or structural faults that may not be immediately visible. Armed with this information you can negotiate appropriately or avoid issues altogether. In the Cairns and surrounding region where termite threats are real, a professional inspection is essential.

For property maintenance we recommend inspections every few years or when there is a change in condition, such as new additions, moisture intrusion or signs of pest activity. For investment or commercial properties it may be wise to schedule inspections more frequently to safeguard your asset. Regular inspections help detect early signs of timber or pest damage, prevent escalation and maintain the value and safety of the building.
