Independent inspection to AS 4349.1 by a registered building contractor. What you are buying, read by someone who has built. Report within 24 hours.
Buying on the Peel Inlet foreshore in Madora Bay means buying into a tidal estuary system, not a freshwater lake or a standard ocean foreshore — and the distinction matters for a pre-purchase building inspection. Tidal salt-influenced estuarine moisture behaves differently from both freshwater and pure ocean exposure: it is year-round rather than seasonal, slightly saline rather than fresh, and biologically productive in a way that sustains the specific organic conditions termite colonies use. A pre-purchase building inspection in Madora Bay is building scope only, to AS 4349.1, and for inlet-adjacent lots it reads the subfloor and perimeter against that tidal estuarine baseline rather than a standard seasonal moisture profile.
\n\nFor interior lots, the standard 20-to-35-year estate age read applies: wet-area waterproofing at or approaching first service life, flat Peel sandplain site drainage management over twenty to thirty-five winters, and the rendered wall performance at the estate age. For inlet lots, those reads apply on top of the estuarine baseline. The combined building and pest inspection is especially recommended for inlet-adjacent lots. The report follows within 24 hours.
We run the same inspection across the area, including nearby San Remo and Silver Sands.

A building inspection to AS 4349.1 where lot position relative to the Peel Inlet tidal estuarine boundary determines the primary site factor alongside the standard 20-to-35-year coastal estate age read.
No — but the combined inspection is especially recommended for inlet-adjacent lots given the year-round tidal estuarine moisture.
Year-round tidal estuarine moisture and foreshore vegetation maintaining elevated termite conditions regardless of season. The combined inspection is especially recommended for those lots.
At 20 to 35 years: wet-area waterproofing at or approaching first service life, and site drainage management on the flat Peel sandplain.
Yes. The inlet position context and age-specific condition findings give you a factual pre-purchase basis.
Yes, particularly for inlet-adjacent lots. The combined inspection covers timber pest.
Yes. Subfloor conditions on the flat Peel sandplain are part of the pre-purchase read.
Within 24 hours of the inspection.
The Peel-Harvey estuary is one of the most biologically productive estuarine systems in southern WA. Its ecological productivity sustains the foreshore vegetation and tidal moisture that gives inlet-adjacent lots their elevated termite context.
Year-round tidal estuarine moisture that removes seasonal drying from the soil moisture cycle on inlet-adjacent lots — interior lots have more seasonal variation and lower sustained moisture.
Also available as a combined building and timber pest inspection in Madora Bay — both scopes in one visit to AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3, one report within 24 hours.
