HomeBuyer Pest Inspection Service.

Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. While a standard property survey checks the structure and condition of a building, pest problems are often overlooked or fall outside the scope of a traditional survey.

At J Pest Control Ltd, our HomeBuyer Pest Inspection provides a specialist assessment of the property, helping you identify hidden pest issues before you commit to your purchase.

If you’re buying your first home, moving house, or investing in a rental property, our inspection can help you avoid unexpected costs and give you confidence that you’re making an informed decision.

Why Choose a HomeBuyer Pest Inspection?

Many pest infestations remain hidden until after the new owner has moved in. We regularly attend properties where homeowners discover problems only weeks after completion.

These issues can include:

• Rats and mice in lofts, wall cavities or under floors
• Woodworm damaging structural timbers
• Wasp nests in lofts and roof spaces
• Cockroach infestations
• Fleas and bed bugs
• Ant infestations
• Bird nesting and entry points
• Conditions that could lead to future pest infestations

Identifying these issues before exchange or completion could save you hundreds or even thousands of pounds in treatment and repair costs.

What We Inspect

Our specialist inspection includes a visual assessment of accessible areas of the property, including:

• External walls
• Roofline (visual inspection)
• Loft spaces (where accessible)
• Garages and outbuildings
• Kitchens and utility rooms
• Living areas
• Bedrooms
• Bathrooms
• Under stairs and storage areas
• Gardens and surrounding grounds
• Air bricks and ventilation points
• Evidence of rodent access points
• Signs of timber infestation
• Conditions that attract pests
