Wood borer inspections and certificates in Gqeberha
You’re selling a house in Gqeberha, and the bank or the attorney has told you they need a borer certificate.
That’s most of the calls we get on this, and there’s nearly always a date attached to it that somebody else set. So the first thing to say is: tell us the deadline when you phone. Property transfers run to dates that don’t move, and we’d far rather arrange around yours than find out afterwards that we were the reason it slipped.
What you’re booking
Somebody goes through the property, tells live activity apart from old damage, writes down what they found, and the certificate goes where it needs to go.
That is the job the bank and the attorney are asking for, and it is the one with your date on it.
The inspection page has the detail: what gets looked at, what the signs are, and what it costs.
If it doesn’t need treating, that’s what the report says
Worth saying plainly, because it’s the thing people are quietly worried about when they let us into the roof.
There’s an obvious incentive in this trade to find a problem. The inspection is cheap and the treatment isn’t. We don’t work that way, and plenty of the houses we go through have old borer damage that died years ago and needs nothing done to it at all. When that’s what we find, that’s what we write down.
What the inspection costs
R978 for the inspection and the certificate, VAT included. Outside Gqeberha there’s a travel charge on top, and those are on the prices page.
We publish that number because the agent or the attorney who sent you here needs it before they can tell you what the transfer is going to cost you.
Older stock in Central, Mill Park and Walmer is most of this work. Everywhere we come out to is on the homepage.
Prices can change. We keep the site up to date as best we can, and the price we quote you before we start is the one you pay.
