Pre-purchase Inspection and Report
If you are looking to rent or buy a new property, we can provide a pre-purchasing inspection of your potential new property. We inspect the property for any mould and mould risks, like hidden moisture and dampness, or poor ventilation and provide you with a report.
Our Pre-Purchase Inspections allow you to make educated decisions on your new home or office space, so that you are more likely to avoid expensive and harmful mould issues down the track.
We provide a written report detailing our findings and recommendations.
The cost of the report is $350
GST Included (Report + Quote)
The Inspection Process
1. Find the source
Identify the source(s) of moisture unique to the site and the extent of moisture damage that supports microbial growth.
2. Inspect the damage
Determine the extent fungal particulate has spread from the original source (actual growth) to adjacent areas. This is achieved by quantifying visible mould and odours (NIOSH tool), and sampling (surface and air) in order to establish the Condition (1 to 3) of water-damaged materials.
3. Find the pathways
Identify potential air pathways by which fungal particulate may move through the building from the moisture source (stair wells, lift shafts, chimneys, exhaust fans, HVAC systems, vacuum cleaners…)
4. Recommend and quote
Provide recommendations to deal with moisture sources, and address water-damaged materials and contents. This may require you to refer them on to a IICRC mould remediator/restorer, roof specialist, health care professional, HVAC specialist, licensed plumber, waterproof membrane consultant, hydrologist
/ drainage expert, specialist drying technician…
