Your Building Report

What's involved?

Informed Building Reports is a “boutique” inspection business. All reports are carried out by the principal, Chris Dyce personally. He is a licenced builder and accredited consultant. This business does not subcontract inspections to random inspectors and is not operated by tech platform entrepreneurs. We resist carrying out vendor reports unless the vendor requires an "honest" and often "unflattering" expose of their property. Our service is considered above extraordinary.

The INFORMED visual building and timber pest report takes around 2-4 hours of investigation on site and approximately 2-3 hours drafting the report. This covers physical inspection of the accessible roof area, roof void, internal areas, wet areas, subfloor and timber pest activity, including external areas - and any other unique requirements.

Your inspection includes consideration for compliance with Building Standards and Codes to ensure that you have the facts about visual defects, safety, and maintenance requirements - regardless of the age of the building.

A cursory verbal report may be given on completion of the inspection. However, it is strongly recommended a thorough reading of the report and discussion of the findings with the inspector be considered, before making any purchase decisions.

The written report is usually available within 24 hours (depending on the location, size of property and complexity of defects) by email, compiled using the Report Master 3D Inspection System.

Your report will thoroughly describe the properties existing defects, with captioned photos identifying those areas and also give recommendations on general building maintenance.

Estimates of repair costs can be given if required.

Be informed before you buy

A major purchase/investment

When considering a major purchase like a home, investment property or commercial investment, it's easy to be influenced by appearances unless you are a building inspection expert.

If you rush into buying without an INFORMED BUILDING REPORT, your lifestyle and budget could be threatened in the future. While a property may look good on the surface, some builders and home renovators take risks, cut corners or just get it wrong.

A thorough visual building inspection by INFORMED BUILDING REPORTS before purchase can reveal building defects, repair requirements and relevant safety issues. This can inform you of the true state of affairs of the property and give you peace of mind.

With an INFORMED BUILDING REPORT you'll be armed with all the facts - including the condition of the roof and roof void, internal and external areas, bathrooms and other wet areas, sub floors and any timber pest activity.

Avoid having your dream property turn into a nightmare.
