What's Included with our Inspections
Structural Issues
At Beach to Bush, we thoroughly assess foundations, walls, and roofing to identify any structural concerns that could impact your property investment.
Moisture & Water Damage
The Sunshine Coast’s high humidity and heavy summer downpours make homes vulnerable. We use Flir thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture and rising damp that open homes hide.
Pest Inspections
Our comprehensive termite and pest detection protects your investment from Queensland's most destructive property threats.
Safety Hazards
We provide identification of safety concerns including electrical issues, trip hazards, and non-compliant building elements.
Advanced Inspection Technology
We utilise state-of-the-art equipment, including professional moisture readers and thermal imaging cameras, to provide the most comprehensive property assessment possible.
Our moisture metres accurately detect hidden water damage and damp areas within walls, floors, and ceilings, while our thermal imaging technology reveals temperature variations that indicate missing insulation, air leaks, electrical hotspots, and pest activity. This advanced, non-invasive approach allows us to uncover potential issues that aren’t visible to the naked eye, ensuring you receive a thorough and accurate inspection report you can trust.
How Much Does a Building and Pest Inspection Cost on the Sunshine Coast?
We understand that buying a property is expensive, and you need to budget accordingly. At Beach to Bush, we don’t believe in “one size fits all” pricing, because every property is unique.
The cost of your combined Building and Pest Inspection depends on a few straightforward factors:
Property Size: A 2-bedroom unit in Mooloolaba requires less time to inspect than a 5-bedroom acreage property in the Hinterland.
Construction Type: Homes built on concrete slabs differ from those raised on stumps with extensive sub-floor access.
Age of the Property: Older homes typically require a more intensive investigation to check for long-term wear, structural settling, and historical pest activity.
What is Always Included?
While the exact price varies, our commitment to quality does not. Every inspection quote includes:
A thorough structural and pest assessment by Stuart.
The use of advanced thermal imaging and moisture detection tools at no extra cost.
A same-day verbal briefing on-site.
A comprehensive, plain-English report delivered within 24 hours.

A pre-purchase inspection is organized by the buyer to uncover any hidden defects or pests before finalizing a property purchase. A pre-sale inspection is arranged by the seller before the home goes on the market. Pre-sale inspections help sellers identify issues before buyers do, allowing them to make strategic repairs, set an accurate asking price, and build buyer confidence by providing a transparent report.
A standard inspection typically takes between 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the size, age, and condition of the property. We take our time to ensure every accessible area is thoroughly assessed with our trademark attention to detail.
