If you’re buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on your home in Fishing Point, a professional pest and building inspection can save a lot of headaches later. At CTP Pest & Building Inspections, we’ve worked across Lake Macquarie for years, helping locals make confident decisions about their properties. We know the area, the housing styles, and the problems that come with living close to the lake.
Why Inspections Matter in Fishing Point
Fishing Point is a beautiful spot, quiet streets, lake views, and a relaxed lifestyle. But like many parts of Lake Macquarie, the mix of older homes, high moisture levels, and bushland surroundings means termites and timber decay are real risks. Even small leaks or gaps can become entry points for pests. A thorough inspection helps you catch these issues early, saving you time, money, and stress.
If you’re selling, a pre-sale inspection gives buyers peace of mind and helps you avoid last-minute surprises. For buyers, it’s your best tool for knowing exactly what you’re walking into before signing anything.
What We Look For
Our inspections cover the full structure of your property from the roof space to the subfloor, checking for damage, safety hazards, and any sign of pests or termites.
We look at things like:
- Structural soundness and visible defects
- Moisture or water damage
- Signs of termite activity or past infestations
- Condition of the roof, walls, windows, and doors
- Plumbing and drainage concerns that can attract pests
Each inspection comes with a detailed digital report that’s clear and easy to understand. You’ll get photos, notes, and honest explanations, no jargon or fillers.
Local Knowledge That Counts
We’ve spent years inspecting homes around Fishing Point, Rathmines, and Wangi Wangi. We know which parts of town have drainage problems, which blocks cop more moisture, and which homes tend to attract termites. This local experience means we can give you more than just a report; we can give you practical advice for maintaining your property in this environment.

Selling your home? A vendor inspection helps you list with confidence. You can address any issues upfront, show transparency to buyers, and often achieve a smoother sale.
A Building and Pest Reports You Can Trust
We take our job seriously because we know what’s at stake. Our inspectors are licensed and insured, and every report meets Australian Standards AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3. We use modern equipment, including moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras, to detect what the eye can’t see.
You’ll get your report quickly usually the same day as the inspection, so you can move forward with confidence.
