Your price is settled before the inspection, not after it
Three things set the base price: how many bedrooms, whether it is a house or an apartment, and which tier you pick. The additional costs that lift it and the discounts that bring it down are listed with the tiers above. Every figure is fixed, and you hear it on the call, not on the invoice.
What sets the base price
- BedroomsMore bedrooms means more to walk, test and write up.
- House or apartmentAn apartment has no roof exterior or yard to cover, so it prices lower.
- The tier you pickStructural, Structural Plus or Structural Premium - the depth of the report.

If you are not satisfied with the accuracy of your building inspection, we refund the full amount within 60 days. We put that in writing because we would rather stand behind the report than argue about it.
“PinPoint were incredibly professional and very helpful! Natasha is great at explaining the process and replying quickly to emails. Dale is wonderful and provided so much reassurance for a nervous first home buyer! 10/10 would recommend.”Google Review
“I was present at the property when Sky did his inspection, and found that he provided extra information beyond the set requirements. He was friendly with a professional disposition. The report was thorough with clear photos, and at a reasonable cost.”Google Review
“From Sky calling me straight after I texted at 7pm, to Natasha ensuring I got a booking ASAP to meet my deadline, to Dale calling right after to let me know the property was in good condition. 10/10. Amazing customer service - highly recommend!”Google Review
Questions we get about price
How much does a building inspection cost in Perth?
A combined building and timber pest inspection runs $422 to $837 depending on bedrooms, property type and the tier you choose. Apartments start at $422. Houses start at $497. A building inspection on its own starts at $350. The full tables are on this page.
Why do inspection prices vary?
Three things set the base price: the number of bedrooms, the property type, and the tier you choose. Beyond that, a second storey, a granny flat, a rural yard or a sub floor each add a fixed amount, all listed on this page. We confirm your exact price before you book.
What is the difference between the three tiers?
Structural covers the essentials: external walls, foundation, roof structure, RCDs, smoke detectors and moisture testing, in a 6+ page report. Structural Plus adds internal walls, insulation, doors, windows, drainage, eaves, patios and outbuildings, in a 14+ page report. Structural Premium adds good working order checks on plumbing, electrical fixtures, appliances and hot water, in a 25+ page report.
Why should I combine building and pest?
Bundled with a building inspection, the timber pest side adds $72-$128 instead of the $250 standalone price - a saving of $122-$178. You also get both inspections in one visit and one report instead of coordinating two.
What is a PCI inspection?
A Practical Completion Inspection is an independent check of a new build before handover, so you know what your builder still owes you before you accept the keys. PCI starts at $465 and comes in Structural Plus and Structural Premium only.
Are there any extra charges?
A second storey adds $50, a one bedroom granny flat adds $100 plus $25 per extra bedroom, a rural or large yard over 800sqm adds $50, and sub floor access adds $50. On a home larger than about 250sqm there may be an additional cost for the extra time. We confirm the final figure before you book.
How long does an inspection take?
Most inspections take 1 to 2 hours on site depending on the property. Your report is delivered within 24-48 hours, and a free debrief call follows so we can walk you through what we found.
What does the money-back guarantee cover?
Our money-back guarantee applies to building inspections within 60 days - on a combined job that means the building inspection component. If you are not satisfied with the accuracy of the inspection, we refund that amount in full.
Do you offer pest control as well?
Yes. General pest control, termite treatments and annual termite inspections all run under the same business, starting at $189. Pest control pricing is on its own page.
Do you cover my area?
We cover the full Perth metro, Two Rocks to Mandurah. If you are not sure whether your property falls inside that, call 0481 575 747 and we will tell you straight away.
