When buying or selling a home, you have to get a Building Inspection. But…

…why just get a Building Inspector that has some training in pests when you can have both a Fully Qualified Building Inspector AND a Fully Qualified Pest Inspector for the price of one?

Whether you’re buying or selling, your home is worth so much – the more experise you have, the more covered you are. So let’s break it down…

 

What’s a Building Inspection?

Building inspections usually are performed by ex-builders who often won’t be fully qualified to inspect and treat your home for pests.

They won’t have the knowledge about different types of pests so won’t know how to treat them or be able to offer you a quote on treatment.

Cost-wise you’ll get one person for 1 ½ hours.

What’s a Building & Pest Inspection?

Cure All Building & Pest Inspections are performed by a building inspector and pest inspector – both fully qualified.

With a pest expert onsite you can get a qualified quote and proper advice on any termite activity and treatment so you know what it will cost before you make an offer.  This becomes very important when you are in the process of price negotiations.  When you know the damage and cost to fix, you have a very clear bargaining chip.

Cost-wise you’ll get two people for 1 ½ hours.

Not only is a Cure All Pest & Building Inspection value for money, it makes sense to enlist the help of two experts when it comes to such an important decision as buying a house. Call Cure All for your next building inspection and be in the know about what you’re purchasing.
