FAQ

Pre-Purchase Building Inspections in Leppington: common questions

Why is this page text only?

Our completed Leppington jobs are new construction.

Does a near new house need inspecting?

Yes. A decade is long enough for handover shortcuts to surface and for a first owner to add a deck, a pergola or a bathroom, with or without approval.

Which items are excluded?

No power is turned on and no circuit tested, no pipework pressurised, no appliance operated, nothing dismantled and no engineering signed off. Timber pest work stands apart, governed by AS 4349.3.
