All our reports comply to Australian Standards and Quality Guidelines. Real estate agents,conveyance companies and solicitors in Newcastle all recognise our pest and building reports. We ensure our condition reports are easy to read and understand and can help you avoid expensive repairs associated with a bad property deal.

Here are the steps that we follow to prepare your property condition report:​

Home Inspections

Your agent has told you that the property you’re considering is in “brand new” or “excellent” condition. However, for your peace of mind you should always get an industry expert to give you a second opinion. It is common for painted areas to conceal flaws, rotting frames or evidence of termite activity. These can be expensive and often lead to extensive repairs and maintenance. Safeguard your investment by having one of our trained inspectors thoroughly check for defects and coverups.

Our team of professionals carry with them all the equipment necessary t0 conduct a thorough inspection of all the visible areas. For the more difficult to access areas like inside the walls they use thermal and radar equipment. This equipment is designed to easily find moisture area , leaks and termites. 

Pest Inspections

Pest inspections often involve removing parts, or all, of the wall. This can be very disruptive and can cause a lot of mess. Often the termite nesting areas which can be located deep within the building structure are missed. This can have serious consequences in the future. KAPTOL Pest and Building qualified and experienced inspectors use state-of-the-art technology that has been designed to specifically detect pests without causing any damage to your property. We also use radar, thermal and moisture technology which allows us to look 'through' the walls, floors and ceilings of your property without damage.

Emergency House Calls

The report will detail the areas you need to be aware about the property. Included will be details of any expensive repairs may face, safety hazards, and any other important issues which may influence your decision.
