About the service
Match the inspection to the decision in front of you.
Whether you are considering an established property or following the progress of a new home, the inspection should reflect the question you need answered. A pre-purchase inspection considers visible building issues in accessible areas; adding a pest inspection also looks for visible signs of timber pests and related damage.
For construction work in Leopold, inspections can be arranged at nominated stages rather than waiting until the build is finished. Practical completion and handover checks serve a later purpose, documenting visible items when the home is nearing or has reached completion.
Start by sharing the address, the property or build stage and the timing you are working with. Access limitations are noted because concealed, locked or unsafe areas cannot be assessed in the same way as readily accessible parts of the property.

FAQs
Common questions.
For advice about the right service for a particular property, call or email Scott.
What is useful to send for a Leopold inspection enquiry?+
Provide the full property address, whether the home is established or under construction, the service required and any relevant access or deadline details.
Can a pest inspection be added to a building inspection?+
Yes. Request the combined service when you contact Scott so the proposed scope can cover visible building matters and signs of timber pests in accessible areas.
Is a stage inspection the same as a handover inspection?+
No. A stage inspection takes place while nominated work is in progress. A handover inspection is a later review of the completed home before possession.
Will every part of the property be inspected?+
The inspection is limited to areas that are safely and reasonably accessible on the day. Any relevant access restrictions are considered when the findings are prepared.
