Building & Pest Inspection Reports — Done On-Site
InspectPro is the mobile inspection app built for Australian building and pest inspectors. Walk the property, capture photos, document findings, and deliver a professional AS 4349 report before you leave — all from your iPhone.
What does a building and pest inspection cover in Australia?
A building and pest inspection in Australia is a professional visual assessment of a property's structural condition and timber pest activity, conducted to AS 4349.1 (building) and AS 4349.3 (timber pest) standards. It covers the interior, exterior, roof space, subfloor, and site — identifying major defects, minor defects, safety hazards, and evidence of termite or borer activity.
Building and pest inspections are the foundation of the Australian property inspection industry. Buyers depend on your report to understand the condition of what is often their largest financial investment. Conveyancers and solicitors expect a thorough, professional document. Real estate agents expect fast turnaround so the transaction keeps moving.
The traditional workflow costs you hours. Inspect the property, drive back to the office, sort through photos, open a template, and write up the report. By the time the buyer receives it, half your day is gone — and you've only completed one job.
InspectPro eliminates the office step entirely. Your report builds itself as you inspect. Photos are organised into structured sections. Preset comments handle common observations. By the time you finish the walkthrough, your report is ready to send.
InspectPro is designed around the way Australian inspectors actually work — with sections that support AS 4349.1 building inspection and AS 4349.3 timber pest inspection reporting workflows. Structure, exterior, interior, roof, subfloor, services, and site — every section is accounted for. Timber pest findings sit alongside building observations in a single comprehensive report.
Whether you're inspecting a Queenslander in Brisbane, a weatherboard in Melbourne, a federation home in Sydney, or a new build in Perth, InspectPro adapts to the property and your methodology. Add custom sections, create your own preset comments, and produce reports that reflect your professional brand.
AS 4349 structured reporting
InspectPro organises your inspection into customisable sections suitable for AS 4349.1 (building inspections) and AS 4349.3 (timber pest inspections). Configure sections for site, structure, exterior cladding, interior, roof, subfloor, services, and pest assessment in a single report. Add custom sections for pools, outbuildings, garages, or any area specific to the property.
Photo comments and severity ratings that tell the story
Every defect needs photographic evidence — cracking in brickwork, termite mudding on bearers, moisture staining on ceilings, corroded guttering. InspectPro lets you add comments and severity ratings to photos directly on your phone — tag findings as minor, moderate, major, or critical to document exactly what you've found. Commented and tagged photos in your report make findings unmistakable to buyers, conveyancers, and agents.
Professional PDF reports in minutes
Generate a clean, branded PDF that meets the standard buyers and conveyancers expect. Your report includes property details, scope of inspection, area-by-area findings with commented and tagged photos, timber pest assessment, an executive summary, and your recommendations. Add your business logo, contact details, and professional disclaimers. A report that looks like hours of work — completed in minutes.
How does InspectPro work for building and pest inspections?
Step 1: Create the inspection. Enter the property address, client details, and any relevant information. InspectPro sets up a structured report with customisable sections suitable for AS 4349 reporting — site, exterior, interior, roof exterior, roof space, subfloor, services, and timber pest assessment. Add or remove sections to match the specific property.
Step 2: Inspect and capture. Work through the property systematically. Take photos directly in InspectPro — they're automatically placed in the correct section. Add comments and severity ratings to photos to document cracking, moisture damage, pest activity, damaged timbers, or any other findings. Use preset comments for common observations or type detailed notes. For timber pest inspections, document evidence of termite activity, conducive conditions, and previous treatments in dedicated pest sections.
Step 3: Review and deliver. When you've completed the walkthrough, preview the full report on your phone. Check every section is complete, add your executive summary and overall recommendations, sign digitally, and generate a professional PDF. Send the client a download link — they can view the report on any device without needing an app.
Most inspectors complete the entire process — building inspection, pest inspection, report writing, and delivery — within 30-45 minutes of finishing the physical walkthrough. That's time back in your day for another inspection.
