Inspections

What we inspect

Ten kinds of inspection. Mould is our specialism — with laboratory-analysed sampling rather than an opinion — but we are equally set up for everything else on this list. Each has a defined scope, and we tell you what it does not cover as clearly as what it does. If you are not sure which you need, describe the problem and we will point you at the right one.

Mould Inspection

Air and surface samples, laboratory analysed. Where it is, how far it goes, and what is feeding it.

For: Anyone with visible growth, a persistent musty smell, or unexplained health symptoms at home.

What this covers →

Pre-Purchase Inspection

Before you sign, or during your cooling-off period. The whole house, written up.

For: Buyers, and agents who would rather their deal did not collapse three days before transfer.

What this covers →

Moisture Intrusion

Tracing where the water is actually getting in.

For: Homeowners with damp patches, peeling paint, or a stain that comes back every winter.

What this covers →
