INSPECTIONS BY REGISTERED BUILDERS
Landsdale’s #1 Rated Building and Pest Inspection
Landsdale sits about 18 km north of the Perth CBD in the City of Wanneroo, on land that was market gardens and small rural lots until residential development took hold in the late 1990s. The suburb used to be considerably larger before the City of Wanneroo split off Darch and Madeley as their own suburbs around 1997 and 1998. Today it’s built around the Landsdale Gardens shopping and commercial precinct, which includes parks, reserves, constructed lakes and walking trails, alongside the Warradale Centre’s sporting facilities and the Perth International Telecommunications Centre at the suburb’s eastern end.
The three defect categories we see most in Landsdale homes are builder workmanship defects, wet area waterproofing failures, and termite risk near the estate’s lakes and reserves. Homes built through the late 1990s and 2000s growth wave carry the usual project-home shortcuts: uneven brickwork, poorly sealed junctions and roof tie-downs that don’t always meet spec. We test every shower and wet area for leaks rather than relying on a visual check, since waterproofing issues are common across homes from this era. And with constructed lakes and reserves running through the Landsdale Gardens precinct, properties nearby sit close to damp ground and vegetation that termites favour.
A suburb built around lakes and parkland looks the part, but that same landscaping can work against a house if drainage and waterproofing weren’t done properly. Our registered builders check the work against the code, not the view, with your report ready 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 Landsdale Building & Pest Inspection
Comprehensive Pre Purchase Building Inspections
Every Landsdale 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 Landsdale’s growth-era homes, our builder-inspectors check render, brickwork and roof tie-downs against the code, and test wet areas for waterproofing failures, especially on properties close to the estate’s constructed lakes.
Compliant with AS 4349.1–2007.
Termite & Pest Inspection Landsdale
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.
Landsdale’s constructed lakes and reserves through the Landsdale Gardens precinct keep nearby ground damp and well-vegetated, exactly the conditions subterranean termites favour. We check subfloors, timber framing and garden beds against the house on every inspection.
Compliant with Australian Standard AS 4349.3–2010.
Detailed Photo Report
Your Landsdale 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.

What Landsdale Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a building and pest inspection in Landsdale cost?
Our building and pest inspection in Landsdale 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 Landsdale, Wangara, Gnangara, Darch, Marangaroo, Alexander Heights and Ballajura 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 Landsdale 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 Landsdale?
Yes, particularly for homes close to the Landsdale Gardens lakes and reserves. That damp, well-vegetated ground suits subterranean termites, and our $499 + GST building and pest inspection checks the termite management system and any timber for damage. See what termite damage looks like.
Which suburbs around Landsdale do you cover?
We cover all of Landsdale (6065) and the suburbs around it, including Wangara, Gnangara, Darch, Marangaroo, Alexander Heights and Ballajura. 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 Landsdale?
Check render and brickwork for cracking typical of growth-era project homes, and get into the roof void to check tie-downs and truss condition. Test or ask about wet area waterproofing, since shower leaks are one of the most common defects we find. If the property is close to the estate’s lakes or reserves, ask about termite management. And check drainage around the slab given the suburb’s market garden soil history. Our checklist of what to check before buying covers the rest.
I’m building a new home in Landsdale. 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.
Landsdale has constructed lakes and reserves through the Gardens precinct. Does that affect nearby properties?
Homes close to the lakes and reserves generally see more established, well-watered gardens, which is attractive but does raise termite pressure and can affect drainage on lower-lying blocks. It’s worth asking about termite management history and checking site drainage carefully on any property backing onto the water or parkland. Our inspectors check for termite activity and drainage issues as standard on every inspection.
