Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We've got answers. If you can't find what you're looking for, reach out to our team directly.

What is a building inspection?
A building inspection is a comprehensive visual examination of a property covering exterior, interior, sub-floor, roofing, foundations, drainage and more. It identifies defects, safety hazards, and compliance issues before you commit to a purchase or construction milestone.
Why do I need a building inspection?
A building inspection protects your largest financial investment. It gives you negotiating power when buying, avoids costly surprises post-purchase, and ensures construction work meets required standards at every stage.
How long does an inspection take?
Most standard inspections take between 2–4 hours depending on property size and complexity. Larger properties or those with significant issues may take longer. You are welcome to attend the entire inspection.
Can I attend the inspection?
Absolutely — we encourage it! Attending allows you to ask questions in real time, understand findings in context, and get a much deeper feel for the property's condition than a report alone can convey.
When will I receive my inspection report?
We aim to deliver all reports within 24 hours of inspection. Reports are sent electronically and include photos, findings, severity ratings, and clear recommendations for action.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Vaastu Building Services holds full public liability and professional indemnity insurance, giving you complete peace of mind when engaging our services.
