Building and Pest Inspections in Melton South
Melton South is one of the older established pockets of the Melton area, its housing stock generally predating the estate development that's reshaped much of the wider municipality in recent decades. With that age comes a genuine need to understand a property's maintenance history, particularly around timber pest risk, before you commit.
What we commonly find in Melton South homes
We identified missing safety hinges on a bathroom door and an unsecured aerial cable as serious safety hazards in Melton South properties, both the kind of oversight that's easy to miss without a proper trade eye. We've also confirmed major termite damage in a Melton South property, alongside wood rot, findings that make a proper pest inspection especially important in this part of Melton.
