At Building Inspections Perth, we recently conducted an inspection in Beldon where a homeowner reported disturbing noises and inadequate ventilation from their bathroom fan. Upon investigation, we discovered that the source of the noise was rats nesting in the vicinity of the fan. This not only posed a noise issue but also highlighted potential hygiene concerns.

Further examination revealed that the fan had been incorrectly installed directly to the underside of the tiles, rendering its operation ineffective and inefficient in ventilating the bathroom. This installation oversight not only compromised the fan’s functionality but also contributed to the noise problem and inadequate ventilation.

In addition to these issues, we identified exposed cables that were not properly housed in a junction box. This posed serious safety risks, including the potential for electrical hazards.

Addressing these issues promptly is crucial for ensuring the comfort, safety, and functionality of your home. Our comprehensive inspection services aim to uncover such underlying issues and provide actionable solutions to enhance the performance and safety of your property.
