Heating
A compliant heating system helps maintain a warm, healthy living environment during the colder months. We assess whether the installed heating meets the Healthy Homes Standards and is suitable for the size of the main living area.
Insulation
Effective ceiling and underfloor insulation helps retain heat, improve energy efficiency and reduce heating costs. We inspect the insulation where accessible and identify areas that may require upgrading or improvement.
Ventilation
Good ventilation removes excess moisture and improves indoor air quality. We inspect extractor fans, natural ventilation and other key features to ensure moisture can be effectively managed throughout the home.
Moisture & Drainage
Managing moisture is essential for protecting both the property and the health of its occupants. We assess drainage, ground moisture protection and other factors that may contribute to damp conditions beneath or within the home.
Draught Stopping
Uncontrolled draughts allow warm air to escape and cold air to enter, making a home harder and more expensive to heat. We identify significant gaps, openings and other areas where draught stopping may be required to improve comfort and compliance.
Professional Equipment Makes the Difference
Moisture Meter
Professional moisture scanning helps identify areas of elevated moisture without causing damage to building surfaces.
Thermal Camera
Thermal imaging highlights temperature differences that may indicate missing insulation, air leakage or moisture-related concerns.
Digital Reporting
Interactive digital reports with photographs and clear recommendations make it easy to understand the inspection findings.
High-Resolution Photography
Detailed photographs provide a permanent visual record to clearly document observations and support our recommendations.
