What We See in Nerang.
Nerang built out from the old town centre through the 1970s–90s, leaving a broad mix: brick and chamferboard homes of that era, elevated houses on the hillier streets, and acreage properties towards the hinterland edge. Original roofing, wet areas and slab-edge landscaping carry the usual age-related findings, while the elevated homes add subfloor access, stumps and external timber stairs and decks to the list.
The river valley setting means parts of Nerang sit on low, moisture-retentive ground — so drainage behaviour, subfloor ventilation and termite-conducive conditions get particular attention here. Bush-adjacent blocks on the fringes face the same sustained termite pressure we see across the hinterland, making the AS 4349.3 side of the inspection work hard.

Pre-Purchase Building & Pest Inspection
Buy with confidence
A clear understanding of the property's visible condition at the time of inspection. We identify major and minor defects, safety concerns, timber-pest issues and conducive conditions, helping you make informed decisions with confidence.
What's covered
All reasonably accessible areas of the property — interior, exterior, roof space, subfloor and the site — assessed in a single visit, in accordance with AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3.
How it works
Call or send an enquiry, and we confirm the fee upfront and the time with you and the agent. Prior to the inspection we send a simple booking form, and your written report, with photos, is emailed to you the same day.
Pre-Sale Building & Pest Inspection
Know your home's condition before you list
Understand your home's condition before listing — address issues early, avoid surprises and present your property with confidence to potential buyers.

Termites do not announce themselves. Annual inspections help identify visible evidence of timber-pest activity, timber-pest damage and conditions conducive to timber-pest activity within the inspection scope at the time of inspection.
What's covered
A yearly timber pest inspection to AS 4349.3, designed for property owners and landlords, supported with clear photos and practical recommendations to maintain your property's long-term health and value.

Send us the property address and let us know what inspection you need. We’ll confirm the fee upfront before you decide to book.
Booking & Inspection
Prior to the inspection we send you a simple booking form to review and fill in your details, and we can help coordinate access with you or the agent if needed. Payment can be made prior to the inspection, or prior to receiving your report.
Same-Day Written Report
