A non-invasive visual inspection of one residential home and a written, photographed condition report on the safely accessible areas inspected, visible defects, limitations and recommended next steps.
We email your completed PDF report within 3 working days after the inspection. Working days are Monday to Friday, excluding applicable public holidays. Tell us about any earlier purchase-condition deadline before booking; a faster turnaround requires express agreement.
Inspection limits, access and cancellation
No opening walls, moving heavy possessions, destructive testing or guarantee of hidden conditions. Structural engineering, asbestos or meth testing, detailed weathertightness investigation, Healthy Homes certification, valuations, electrical or plumbing certification, LIM and council approval are excluded.
Use your best estimate of total floor area across all storeys, including attached garages, but excluding uncovered decks and the land area. If the home turns out to be up to 10% larger than your booked band’s upper limit, we honour the booked fee: up to 110 m² for the $595 band, 198 m² for the $695 band, or 275 m² for the $795 band. This tolerance covers a size-estimate difference after booking; choose the normal band using your honest estimate when booking. A larger mismatch or materially different scope will be discussed before extra work; there is no automatic additional charge.
Arrange owner or agent permission and access to the home, roof-space hatch and subfloor where available. Tell us about known hazards. Unsafe or inaccessible areas are recorded as not inspected, with the consequences explained.
Cancel or reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice for a full refund or free change. For later cancellations or missed access, only a reasonable amount reflecting actual loss may be retained. Weather or safety rescheduling is free. If TrickyBuilds cannot deliver the agreed service, choose a new appointment or a full refund.
This report records conditions observed at the inspection date for the named customer and agreed purpose. It does not certify legal compliance or guarantee lender or insurer acceptance. These terms do not exclude rights or remedies under the Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act.
