Our pre-purchase building inspections assess accessible areas of the property, including the roof and roof frame, internal and external walls, doors and windows, subfloor areas, bathrooms and waterproofing, gutters and downpipes, balconies, patios, driveways and other relevant building elements. We also look for visible defects, structural concerns, moisture issues, safety hazards and poor workmanship.
Do you inspect apartments and units?

Our inspections consider property-specific issues such as water ingress, moisture, internal defects, building movement and visible problems with accessible services and common areas where applicable.

Do you provide construction stage inspections?
Yes. Our construction stage inspections are designed to monitor your new home’s construction progress and identify potential defects and workmanship concerns as early as possible. We provide detailed reports so you can raise relevant issues with your builder before construction progresses further.
Which Melbourne suburbs do you service?
Iron Building Inspections services Melbourne and surrounding suburbs, including homes, townhouses, units and investment properties. If you’re unsure whether your property is within our service area, contact us with the property’s location and we’ll confirm availability.
Can I speak with the inspector after receiving my report?
Yes. Our aim is to provide clear, easy-to-understand inspection information rather than simply sending you a technical report. If you have questions about the findings or recommendations, you can discuss the inspection results with us so you have a better understanding of the property’s condition.
