A Pre-Purchase Building Inspection Can Save You Thousands

The photos below show the under pinning of a Gold Coast home due to structural issues.


Getting a building inspection prior to purchase can save you thousands. Just one screw pier installation can cost $3000 – $5000 and more, an average house may need 25 piers or more installed!!! Ouch. The costs of a building inspection is nothing compared to breaking your bank account where structural repairs are required.


The following photos were taken during a screw pier installation on a Gold Coast home, The slab is jacked up and steel and concrete will also fill these holes in.
