Secure Your Home’s Future
A Builders Warranty Inspection is crucial for homeowners nearing the end of their new home’s warranty period. This inspection identifies defects or issues that have emerged since construction, allowing you to request repairs from the builder before the warranty expires. In Melbourne, the Victorian Building Authority (VBA) requires builders to provide warranties covering structural and non-structural defects.
We conduct a detailed assessment of your property, including the roof, foundation, walls, plumbing, electrical systems, and other critical components.
We identify any structural or non-structural defects that have developed since construction, such as cracks, leaks, or faulty installations.
Our inspection reports include high-resolution images of any identified defects, helping you present clear evidence to the builder for necessary repairs.
Our Builder Warranty Inspections frequently uncover a range of issues that homeowners may not be aware of, including:
Cracks in Walls or Ceilings: These may indicate settling or more significant structural problems that need to be addressed.
Roof Leaks: Even small leaks can lead to major water damage if not fixed promptly.
Plumbing Defects: Issues such as leaks, poor water pressure, or drainage problems are common and should be repaired under the warranty.
Electrical Faults: Outdated or improperly installed wiring can pose a safety hazard and should be addressed immediately.
Poor Ventilation: Insufficient ventilation can lead to mold growth, which may require professional remediation.
