Building & Pest Inspections in Burleigh Waters
Lake and canal estates of 1970s–80s single-level brick — solid, settled stock where original components and forty-year-old landscaping write most of the report.
Burleigh Waters filled out through the late 1970s and 80s with low-set brick homes on concrete slabs around its lakes and canals. The stock is fundamentally sound, which makes the findings predictable but important: original bathrooms and kitchens with waterproofing at end of life, first-generation roofs due for maintenance, and four decades of gardens, paths and extensions creeping over slab edges and weep holes — the classic concealed termite entry path.
The flat, water-adjacent blocks make drainage behaviour a standard observation, and the suburb's strong renovation culture means we look hard at the junctions where new work meets the original structure — extensions, raised ceilings and opened walls all leave stories worth reading.
Every Burleigh Waters inspection is a combined visual building and timber pest assessment to AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3, carried out under a pre-inspection agreement, with the written photo report in your inbox the same day. See our services or the FAQs for the full picture.
