INSPECTIONS BY REGISTERED BUILDERS
Currambine’s #1 Rated Building and Pest Inspection
Currambine’s name was approved in 1980, chosen by the City of Wanneroo from a reference book as an Aboriginal word from New South Wales meaning heaps of rocks, but the suburb itself didn’t take shape until the mid-1990s, developed as a residential area next to the newly built Currambine train station, which opened in 1993. Currambine Central shopping centre anchors the south-western corner, and the Joondalup Golf Course and Resort runs through the suburb’s south-east, with five of its holes sitting inside Currambine’s boundary. Currambine Primary School opened in 1997, alongside Francis Jordan Catholic School, as the estate filled in around the station.
The three defect categories we see most in Currambine homes are builder workmanship defects, wet area waterproofing issues and termite activity near the golf course. Most homes here went up quickly through the mid-1990s building boom around the new train station, and we still find missed roof tie-downs, patchy brickwork and render cracking from that rush. Bathroom and shower waterproofing from this era often falls short of what’s required now, and we test rather than assume it’s sound. With Joondalup Golf Course running through the suburb and constant garden irrigation across the estate, termites have no shortage of moisture to work with.
A 1990s estate home near the station looks tidy enough from the street, but the roof space and the wet areas tell a different story more often than buyers expect. Our registered builders check both properly, with your report within 24 hours.
The difference with WA Building Inspections is simple: our inspectors are licensed registered builders (BP104751). Real Builders. Better Inspections. That’s why over 30,000 Perth home buyers have trusted us.
What’s Included in Your Currambine Building & Pest Inspection
Comprehensive Pre Purchase Building Inspections
Every Currambine inspection is carried out by a licensed registered builder (BP104751), not a generalist with a checklist. We physically access roof voids, subfloors and external structures wherever it’s safe to do so, and we inspect against the building code our inspectors have spent their careers working under. On Currambine’s mid-1990s estate homes, our builder-inspectors check roof tie-downs, brickwork and wet area waterproofing against what the building code actually required at the time, not just how tidy the finish looks now.
Compliant with AS 4349.1–2007.
Termite & Pest Inspection Currambine
A full timber pest inspection is included with every combined booking, not bolted on as an upsell. We check for active subterranean termite activity, evidence of past activity, termite conducive conditions, failed or expired chemical barriers, and wood borer activity across the property, fencing and outbuildings.
Currambine’s proximity to Joondalup Golf Course and its reticulated gardens gives termites reliable moisture close to a lot of properties. We check subfloors, timber fencing and garden beds against the walls, particularly on blocks near the course.
Compliant with Australian Standard AS 4349.3–2010.
Detailed Photo Report
Your Currambine report lands in your inbox within 24 hours of the inspection. It’s not a generic template. Every defect we identify is photographed, captioned and explained in plain English with the relevant Australian Standard or NCC clause cited where applicable. You’ll see exactly what the issue is, why it matters, and what it’s likely to cost to remediate. We also include a follow-up consultation call so you can walk through the findings with your inspector before any negotiation or settlement decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a building and pest inspection in Currambine cost?
Our building and pest inspection in Currambine is $499 + GST, fixed price, and it saves $99 + GST (approximately 16.6%) compared to booking the two separately, based on a 4×2 home. For buyers who want the most thorough inspection available, our Advanced Building & Pest Inspection is $799 + GST. Pricing is fixed with no travel surcharges across Currambine, Burns Beach, Kinross, Neerabup, Iluka, Joondalup and Connolly and the surrounding northern growth suburbs.
What does a building and pest inspection cover?
Our inspectors inspect more than your average inspector. How? We are qualified registered builders, so we go where the others won’t and we detect what the others can’t. Read more about what a full building and pest inspection covers.
How long does a building inspection in Currambine take?
Most inspections take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the size, age and access of the home. Older homes, bigger blocks and homes with extensions or outbuildings take longer, because we inspect all of it. Your detailed photo report arrives within 24 hours.
Do I need a termite inspection in Currambine?
Yes. Currambine’s golf course frontage and heavily reticulated gardens create conditions termites thrive in, on top of housing stock old enough for genuine risk. Our $499 + GST building and pest inspection covers the property, with your report within 24 hours. See what termite damage looks like.
Which suburbs around Currambine do you cover?
We cover all of Currambine (6028) and the suburbs around it, including Burns Beach, Kinross, Neerabup, Iluka, Joondalup and Connolly. We inspect right across the North Metro & Northern Beaches and the rest of Perth.
Is a building inspection required when buying property in Western Australia?
It isn’t a legal requirement, but Consumer Protection WA recommends making your offer subject to a building inspection. Without one, you buy the home as it is. Make sure your contract includes a building inspection clause, and book the inspection within 2 to 3 business days of your offer being accepted so you have time to act on the report.
What should I look for when buying a home in Currambine?
Check the roof space for tie-downs and general workmanship, since Currambine’s mid-1990s building boom left some rushed jobs. Test wet areas for leaks rather than trusting the tiles, given the age of original waterproofing. If the property is near Joondalup Golf Course, ask about termite management and check timber close to the boundary. Look at render and brickwork for cracking that points to movement or drainage problems. Our checklist of what to check before buying covers the rest.
I’m building a new home in Currambine. Do you offer new construction inspections?
Yes. We inspect new homes at every stage, from the slab through to handover. See our guide to construction stage inspections in WA, and use our PCI checklist before you take the keys. It’s far cheaper to have the builder fix defects before you move in than after.
Can you negotiate the price after a building and pest inspection?
Yes. A detailed report with photos and plain-English explanations gives you solid evidence to renegotiate the price or ask the seller to fix defects before settlement. Talk to your settlement agent early, because your building inspection condition has a deadline.
What makes WA Building Inspections different?
Our inspectors are licensed registered builders (BP104751). Real Builders. Better Inspections. We know how a home should have been built, not just how it looks, and we inspect to AS 4349.1 with a full timber pest inspection to AS 4349.3. Every report arrives within 24 hours, with a follow-up call to walk you through it.
Currambine grew up quickly around the train station in the 1990s. Does that affect what I should check?
Rapid estate development often means trades working fast to keep up with demand, and Currambine’s mid-1990s boom was no exception. Roof tie-downs, brickwork and wet area waterproofing are the areas most likely to show shortcuts from that period. Our registered builders know what a compliant 1990s build should look like and will tell you plainly where this one falls short.
