Home inspection in Southern Suburbs
We inspect properties in Southern Suburbs and write up everything we find, with photographs, within 24 to 36 hours of the inspection.
What we look for in Southern Suburbs
Claremont, Newlands, Rondebosch and Kenilworth carry a lot of pre-1960 housing. Damp is the recurring theme — Newlands is one of the wettest spots in the city. Add old galvanised plumbing, original wiring behind newer boards, and oak roots lifting paving and drains.
That does not mean we only look at those things — every inspection covers the full list below. It means we know where to look hardest in Southern Suburbs.
Every inspection covers
- Roofing
- Roof space
- Exterior of the building
- Interior of the building
- Crawl space
- Geyser
- Plumbing
- Site and grounds
- Garage
- Locations of emergency controls
Anything we could not access is listed too, with the reason.
