Inspect My Home has been providing prospective home buyers with informative and independent building inspection services throughout Brisbane and South East QLD since 1995.
If you're looking to purchase a property in the Brisbane area, a building and pest inspection is an important step of the buying process to make sure the home you're interested in doesn't have any hidden damage that might require costly repairs.
Our building inspectors will provide a comprehensive building inspection report (uusally sent within 24hrs of conducting the inspection.)
In the same way, it’s critical to get a combined building and pest inspection to check for any termite activity or infestation.

This is why it's good idea to get a professional termite inspector who knows the right areas of a building to check for termite damage and provide a comprehensive pest inspection report.
With vast experience and knowledge of the local area, our experienced building inspectors will provide you with a thorough inspection and informative report within 24 hours of the building inspection.
Our fast turnaround times ensure you can make an informed decision on the property and buy with confidence.
