INSPECTIONS BY REGISTERED BUILDERS
Mullaloo’s #1 Rated Building and Pest Inspection
Mullaloo sits about 25 km north of the Perth CBD, a beachside suburb built up from the late 1950s onward around what was originally recorded as Moolalloo Point back in 1919. Streets like Dampier Avenue and Mullaloo Drive run down toward Mullaloo Beach and the Oceanside Promenade, with the Mullaloo Surf Life Saving Club patrolling the shore each summer. The result is a suburb of established brick and tile homes from the 1960s and 70s, many only a short walk from the water, mixed with newer builds closer to Ocean Reef Road.
The three defect categories we see most in Mullaloo homes are corroded roof fixings and gutters, ageing brick and mortar, and asbestos-cement materials. Salt-laden wind off the Indian Ocean works quickly on exposed metal roofing, gutters and fixings, and we find rust well advanced in homes that still look tidy from the street. Original brickwork from the 1960s and 70s often shows perished mortar joints and flaking render after decades of onshore weather. Homes from that era commonly used asbestos-cement sheeting in eaves, garages and side additions.
Buying this close to the beach means factoring in ongoing exposure, not just the current condition. Our registered builders know what accelerated coastal wear actually looks like against normal ageing, so you get an honest picture of what needs fixing now and what can wait. The report is in your hands 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 Mullaloo Building & Pest Inspection
Comprehensive Pre Purchase Building Inspections
Every Mullaloo 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 Mullaloo’s beachside homes, our builder-inspectors pay close attention to roof fixings, gutters and any western-facing brickwork, checking how far salt air corrosion and weathering have actually progressed rather than relying on how fresh the paint looks.
Compliant with AS 4349.1–2007.
Termite & Pest Inspection Mullaloo
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.
Mullaloo’s established gardens and reticulated lawns around the older streets give termites the moisture they need, even with sandy coastal soils underneath. We check subfloors, timber fascias and garden beds hard against the walls on every inspection.
Compliant with Australian Standard AS 4349.3–2010.
Detailed Photo Report
Your Mullaloo 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 Mullaloo cost?
Our building and pest inspection in Mullaloo 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 Mullaloo, Ocean Reef, Heathridge, Beldon, Kallaroo and Craigie and the surrounding northern coastal 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 Mullaloo 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 Mullaloo?
Yes. Mullaloo’s older homes have timber fascias, eaves and roof framing that have had decades of exposure, and reticulated gardens keep the soil around them moist. Our $499 + GST building and pest inspection checks for activity and damage across the whole property, with your report within 24 hours. See what termite damage looks like.
Which suburbs around Mullaloo do you cover?
We cover all of Mullaloo (6027) and the suburbs around it, including Ocean Reef, Heathridge, Beldon, Kallaroo and Craigie. 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 Mullaloo?
Start at the roof, since salt air corrodes metal sheeting, gutters and fixings faster this close to the water. Check brickwork for flaking render and perished mortar, particularly on walls that face the weather. If the home dates from the 1960s or 70s, treat eaves, garages and any side additions as possible asbestos until confirmed. Ask about renovation history too, since older beachside homes are often extended more than once. Our checklist of what to check before buying covers the rest.
I’m building a new home in Mullaloo. 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.
How much does living near the ocean affect a Mullaloo building inspection?
Quite a bit. Salt-laden wind off the Indian Ocean accelerates corrosion on metal roofing, gutters and fixings, and it can speed up mortar and render breakdown on exposed brick walls too. Our registered builders check these areas closely on every Mullaloo inspection, because coastal wear is often well advanced before it’s obvious from the street.
