Information & FAQs

Would you buy a used car without getting an expert to look for possible mechanical issues before your purchase? Well, the same principle applies when buying a home or property! It is important to get a professional to thoroughly inspect the property to get a true understanding of the property condition.

As a licensed building inspector, we have the years of experience and knowledge needed to find the most common building faults, as well as any significant structural damage, potential issues, evidence of termite activity,  or other building issues.

Taking place prior to the purchaser taking possession of their new home, a handover inspection will ensure your home is ready to move in to and will highlight in detail any defects and imperfections, plus it will protect you in the future if you decide to sell.

We pride ourselves on our fast report turnaround and quality service. We usually conduct a building inspection within 48 hours of your inspection request. Your report will be available within 24 hours, emailed through to your chosen email address. However, in an urgent situation, we will endeavour to complete the inspection within 24 hours, and upon request, your reports can be made available on the day of the inspection.
