Pre-Purchase Electrical Inspections

Whilst considering the purchase of a pre-owned property, it’s commonplace to arrange building and pest inspections although electrical safety is often overlooked. Hidden issues within a home’s electrical installation can lead to serious safety risks and expensive future repairs.

We offer comprehensive pre-purchase electrical inspections for residential properties, giving you peace of mind before committing to a purchase. We’ll thoroughly assess the electrical installation, ensuring it meets current safety standards and provide a report shortly afterwards identifying any potential issues that require urgent repairs or upgrading.

common questions

How long will an electrical inspection take?

An electrical pre-purchase inspection usually takes between 1 to 2 hours, depending on several factors, including:

  • Size of the property.

  • Condition of the electrical installation.

  • Accessibility to switchboards, outlets and roof spaces.

  • Additional Facilities on the property.

When should I expect to receive the report post-inspection?

The electrical pre-purchase inspection report is typically provided within 24 to 48 hours after the inspection is completed.

Can the electrical inspection be carried out alongside another contractor’s building and pest inspection?

To minimise disruption to the current homeowner or tenants, it’s generally recommended to schedule the electrical inspection at the same time as a building and pest inspection.

We’re happy to coordinate with real estate agents and work alongside other trades to ensure a smooth process.
