INSPECTIONS BY REGISTERED BUILDERS
Nollamara’s #1 Rated Building and Pest Inspection
Nollamara sits about 10 km north of the Perth CBD, its name taken from the Noongar word for the flowering plant commonly known as black kangaroo paw. It’s a suburb of established, leafy streets, with parts elevated enough to give views over the surrounding suburbs, and reserves like Des Penman Reserve providing tennis, soccer, lawn bowls and shaded picnic areas. Nollamara’s original housing stock is a good deal older than many of its northern neighbours, and over the past decade the suburb has been gentrifying, with older homes increasingly knocked down and replaced by new townhomes alongside young families and professionals moving in.
The three defect categories we see most in Nollamara homes are ageing roofs and old plumbing, asbestos-cement materials, and termite activity in established gardens. Original homes are decades old, and roof coverings, guttering and old plumbing are common trouble spots we check from the roof space down. Extensions and outbuildings from earlier decades commonly used asbestos-cement sheeting, so we treat any older cladding or fencing as material to test. Nollamara’s mature trees and long-established gardens also give termites plenty of cover close to older subfloors and timber fascias.
With older homes, knockdown rebuilds and new townhomes now sitting side by side across Nollamara, it pays to know exactly what era of construction you’re buying into. Our registered builders check each property on its own merits and hand you a clear 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 Nollamara Building & Pest Inspection
Comprehensive Pre Purchase Building Inspections
Every Nollamara 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 Nollamara’s older original homes, our builder-inspectors check roof coverings, guttering and plumbing runs closely, while on newer townhomes replacing knockdowns we check finish and compliance against what a proper build should look like.
Compliant with AS 4349.1–2007.
Termite & Pest Inspection Nollamara
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.
Nollamara’s mature trees and long-established gardens give termites easy cover close to older subfloors, fascias and outbuildings. We check these areas closely, particularly on original homes that haven’t been renovated in decades.
Compliant with Australian Standard AS 4349.3–2010.
Detailed Photo Report
Your Nollamara 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 Nollamara cost?
Our building and pest inspection in Nollamara 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 Nollamara, Balcatta, Westminster, Mirrabooka, Dianella, Tuart Hill and Yokine and the surrounding northern 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 Nollamara 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 Nollamara?
Yes. Many Nollamara homes are original stock with mature gardens and older timber around subfloors and fascias, both attractive to subterranean termites. Our $499 + GST building and pest inspection checks for activity and past damage, with your report within 24 hours. See what termite damage looks like.
Which suburbs around Nollamara do you cover?
We cover all of Nollamara (6061) and the suburbs around it, including Balcatta, Westminster, Mirrabooka, Dianella, Tuart Hill and Yokine. 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 Nollamara?
On original homes, check the roof, guttering and old plumbing first, since these are common weak points on ageing stock. Treat any older cladding, fencing or sheds as possible asbestos until tested. If you’re buying a newer townhome built on a knockdown site, ask about the build quality and check render, waterproofing and drainage rather than assuming new means defect-free. Either way, check the garden for termite-friendly conditions like retained mulch against the walls. Our checklist of what to check before buying covers the rest.
I’m building a new home in Nollamara. 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.
Nollamara has a lot of knockdown rebuild townhomes now. What should I check that's different from an older home?
Newer townhomes replacing older Nollamara homes still need a proper check, just for different things: shower waterproofing, render cracking, site drainage and roof tie-downs rather than ageing plumbing or old asbestos. Our registered builders know what a compliant modern build should look like and will tell you plainly if corners were cut, whether the home is decades old or only just finished.
