Camberwell Property and Building Inspections

Camberwell homes combine Victorian, Edwardian, older style units as well as some brick veneers properties and flats as well. Land is very valuable in the Camberwell therefore the decision to renovate, restore or replace your Camberwell property will have a significant financial effect on your life.

All older Camberwell properties (prior to the 1980’s) will almost certainly contain asbestos.  Asbestos removal can be major cost in demolition. Your property building inspection in Camberwell will give you knowledge to make sound decisions about your Camberwell home purchase.

Building wise, Camberwell homes are typically brick veneer or solid brick and usually of good quality. Older homes in Camberwell, Balwyn, Kew, North Balwyn and the surrounding areas of Melbourne often have dampness issues.  The beautiful trees that surround Camberwell homes can also cause a lot of problems over the years too.

All homes eventually leak or have drainage problems so it’s just a matter of knowing what these problems are when performing a pre-purchase home inspection in the Camberwell area.
