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.
A pre-purchase building inspection in Parkwood reads a 1970s or 1980s home on the sandy ground between the Cannington entertainment precinct, the Roe Highway and the Canning River Regional Park. The inspection is building scope only, to AS 4349.1, and the Parkwood pre-purchase read combines the standard forty-to-fifty-year estate age profile with the boundary-specific context that determines which additional site factors apply to the specific block being purchased.
The forty-to-fifty-year age read applies throughout the suburb. Wet-area waterproofing at or past first service life, tile roof mortar at the ridge-and-verge replacement window, and original timber windows at forty to fifty thermal cycles are the estate-wide pre-purchase priorities — the condition of these components determines the near-term cost of ownership and provides the factual basis for any pre-purchase renegotiation.
The boundary position determines the additional site reads: highway-adjacent western blocks carry the Roe Highway vibration crack context; northern blocks near the Cannington centre carry the commercial activity context; and southern park-adjacent blocks carry the Canning River Regional Park termite and moisture context. We identify which boundary applies to the specific block and read accordingly. The report follows within 24 hours.

A building inspection to AS 4349.1 that reads the 1970s–1980s estate structure before you buy, combining the standard age profile with the boundary-specific site contexts of the Roe Highway, the Cannington centre and the Canning River Regional Park.
No, building scope only. The combined inspection covers both — and for park-adjacent southern blocks, the combined inspection is especially recommended.
Wet-area waterproofing at or past first service life, tile roof mortar at the replacement window, and original timber windows at forty to fifty thermal cycles. These are the estate-wide pre-purchase priorities.
Western boundary blocks carry the highway vibration crack signature — horizontal mortar-course cracking and frame movement — alongside the standard age read.
Southern park-adjacent blocks carry elevated termite risk from the Canning River Regional Park vegetation boundary. We note the park proximity in the pre-purchase report.
Yes. Waterproofing condition and tile mortar findings at this age give you a factual basis for renegotiation.
Yes, particularly for park-adjacent southern blocks. The combined inspection covers timber pest.
Yes. Subfloor conditions and site drainage at forty to fifty years are part of the pre-purchase read.
Within 24 hours of the inspection.
Northern blocks nearest the entertainment precinct carry the background vibration and commercial activity context. We note this as a site factor in the pre-purchase report.
