Yanchep Building Inspections
Yanchep is located about 100 kms north of Perth along the Indian Ocean coastline. Once a holiday home and fishing area, it has recently been developed in the last 20 years into a bustling northern suburb, home to families and retirees.
With two primary schools and a high school, along with a shopping and industrial precinct, it is growing in population and makes up a large portion of the City of Wanneroo.
Due to the rising population, the state government is in the process of extending the Metronet rail line to include a Yanchep station. There are also plans for a golf course and housing development surrounding it.
With Yanchep being a predominantly coastal location, means there are some unique building and maintenance issues to consider, which our team can advise on.
There is also a known issue with one Yanchep residence, in which a home was built in 2011 on unstable ground. The home is now showing structural defects caused by a loss of compaction to the foundation material beneath the dwelling and retaining wall.
The home was built in an area known for underground caves and sinkholes. SURE Building Inspections are a Perth based building inspection company, so we are aware of these types of issues, and include through testing in our reports, to provide solid peace of mind to you.

Common Problems with Yanchep Homes
Como is a well-established suburb, with many homes built in the 1950s. It is also within close proximity to the Swan River, which brings with it some unique challenges. Our experienced Como home building inspectors know what to look for. Some of the Como home inspection issues to look out for include:
- Oceanside living comes with a catch – buildings are more susceptible to damage caused by the sea breeze carrying salty sea air, which leads to corrosion. SURE Building & Pest know what to look out for and will give you recommendations based on our years of experience inspecting seaside homes.
- Being an oceanside location, there are some common pests that come with the territory, including cockroaches, spiders and ants. Along with mosquitoes and rats, all of which our pest team can take care of for you.
- You should also ensure the building is thoroughly checked for asbestos, which was commonly used up until the 90s in building projects, prior to it being discovered to cause lung diseases.
