Are you building a new house or other types of new construction? Make sure that your future home is not hiding structural issues beneath a beautiful veneer. Hire a credible and experienced new building inspector in Perth.
Engaging the services of building inspectors, such as Iluka Building Inspections, ensures that each stage of construction complies with the National Construction Code of Australia.
Contractors and subcontractors sometimes cut corners, have poor workmanship, or even use low-quality materials.
That’s why independent building inspections in Perth should be carried out at key stages of construction, not only the final inspection before the handover, to avoid costly repairs or legal fees.

Conducting stage-by-stage inspections, also known as practical completion inspections, is one of the best ways to protect your investment in a new property construction.
Iluka Building Inspections inspects each of these critical construction stages to ensure that no defects go undetected or get covered up:
You want an experienced builder and inspector to be your qualified representative in detecting and resolving major structural defects and Building Code compliance issues at every stage before proceeding to the next.
Iluka Building Inspections is independently owned and operated.
No franchise, no stockholders to please, free from builder or sales influences.
We offer unbiased building and pest inspections of all kinds, and we never charge a call-out fee!
It’s not a secret that many building inspectors use subcontractors in the building inspection industry. Unfortunately, this isn’t illegal. It also means that you have no idea how qualified or experienced the subcontractor is.
A thorough building inspection requires experience in building and up-to-date knowledge of the building inspection process and current Australian standards.
The owner/operator, Mike Weckman, is a master builder with over 30 years of experience as a licensed building inspector.

This proactive approach will help you prevent costly repairs and save thousands of dollars down the line.
We do various types of new construction inspections, including:
We offer this range of services at a reasonable cost, so there’s no reason you can’t protect your investment with the best inspection services in Perth.
Other building inspectors may use nothing more than a checklist provided by the company, but Iluka Building Inspections Perth has a master builder to conduct the new building inspection.
This protects both buyers and builders/owners, giving them the peace of mind that all aspects of the construction process and rectification works were completed to current Australian standards.
Under Australian law, new builds must offer termite protection.
Besides the standard timber pest inspection required for all new constructions, we also verify that the termite mesh, if requested by the buyer, is properly installed.
Bear in mind that nearly all of the termite mesh will be covered after the construction completion, so it makes sense to have a building and pest inspection done at this stage.
Verifying that the correct type of termite protection was used and that it was installed properly makes all the difference for future pest inspections and protection programs.
In brief, Australian standards-aligned inspections will provide consistency, reliability, and clear expectations for your new builds.
What building inspectors do is assess each line of work for approved plans, workmanship, structural condition, and visible compliance.
Come to think of it, it does make sense to identify problems early on, while it’s still possible (and easy) for the builders to rectify errors. Waiting years for defects to show will only increase safety risks and repair costs.
Most people will assume that a new build will be perfect and that every Australian standard will be properly applied, but this isn’t always the case.
Errors and serious mistakes stem from all-too-common issues, such as tight schedules, overbooked contractors, multiple housing units being constructed, and sublet labor.
The seller or builder will always look out for their own interests, not yours. So what you need is an unbiased, independent building inspector who will help you go through the complex issues of your building project and look out for your interests.

A: This type of building inspection verifies the quality and compliance of new building construction. A comprehensive building inspection includes structural elements, workmanship, and adherence to Australian building standards.
A: A thorough building inspection will vary depending on the building size, stage of construction, and other factors. In general, you can expect to pay around $400-$500 per stage.
A: Construction inspections should be performed at every major structural stage, such as before the slab is poured, after the frame is finished, or at lock-up, to ensure that any building defects or errors can be rectified promptly and more easily.
A: It isn’t mandatory, but most owners require a pest inspection process. Since most of the termite mesh will no longer be visible after the building is completed, a pest inspection conducted by an independent inspector ensures that the termite mesh is installed properly.
A: This varies from business to business. Many building inspection services have qualified inspectors, while others sublet the work to unknown persons. Franchised locations will perform the inspections, but they often have ties to stockholders and builders.
In Iluka Building Inspections, Mike Weckman does the job himself, ensuring a professional, unbiased, and comprehensive inspection for all types of buildings.
