Buying or Renovating an Older Home?

If you're buying a house, planning a renovation, or just want to know what condition the plumbing is in, an inspection tells you what you are dealing with before you commit.

Pipes and drains are hidden in the walls and under the ground, and problems with them don't show up in a walkthrough.

We'll Tell You What Condition the Plumbing Is In

We inspect the visible pipework, fixtures, hot water system and drainage, and run a camera through the drains where it's useful.

You get a written summary of what is in good condition, what will need attention soon and what needs fixing now, with an idea of what the bigger items would cost.

We carry out plumbing inspections across Melbourne's eastern suburbs. Contact us today for a free quote.

Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The visible pipework, the fixtures and their condition, the hot water system, and the drainage including a camera run through the lines where that is useful. The aim is a clear picture of what is sound and what is not.

  • No. A building inspection covers the structure and is usually carried out by a building inspector. A plumbing inspection goes into the water, gas, drainage and hot water in more depth than a general inspection does.

  • Usually, but tell us the date when you enquire so we can be honest about whether we can fit it in. Access has to be arranged through the agent, which is worth starting early.

  • You get a written summary of what we found, the condition of the main items and what the significant repairs would cost. If you need it in a specific format for a particular purpose, tell us before we book it in.

  • Often yes. Knowing where the drainage actually runs and what condition it is in before you fix the layout is the difference between a smooth renovation and an expensive surprise once the slab is exposed.
