Does your Pre-Purchase Building and Pest Report advise you to contact a Structural Engineer?
Post Building and Pest Structural Inspections in Brisbane & Southeast Queensland
Independent Structural Assessments to Help You Buy or Sell with Confidence
When buying or selling a property, appearances can be deceiving. Cracks in walls, sloping floors, rusted supports, or wobbly decks might seem minor—but they could be signs of deeper structural issues. At Booth Engineers & Associates, our RPEQ-certified structural engineers provide clear, unbiased property purchase structural inspections to help you make informed decisions about your biggest asset.
We work with homeowners, buyers, sellers, and investors across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Logan, and beyond to deliver timely, expert advice that complements your building and pest inspections.
What Is a Post Building and Pest Structural Inspection?
A Post building and Pest Structural iInspection is a targeted, engineering-specific assessment of a property’s structural performance and integrity. These inspections go beyond the surface checks included in standard building and pest reports, providing specialist evaluation of the home’s ability to safely carry loads, resist movement, and maintain structural stability over time.
Whether you’re unsure about a crack in the wall, corrosion in steel posts, or movement in the footings, our engineers will investigate the root cause and provide a clear pathway forward.
What We Assess
Our inspections are tailored to the concerns raised in a building and pest report or during your own property walk-through. Typical issues we assess include:
✔️ Cracks in walls or ceilings
✔️ Foundation or footing movement (subsidence)
✔️ Rusting or corroded steel supports and beams
✔️ Leaning or failing retaining walls
✔️ Bouncy or unstable floors and decks
✔️ Structural movement in suspended slabs or verandahs
✔️ Visible deflection or bowing in roof or floor framing
✔️ Load-bearing wall alterations or removals
✔️ Concerns raised by building and pest inspectors
We don’t just highlight the problems—we also help you understand the why, and what to do next.
Who Needs a Post Building and Pest Structural Inspection?
