Know your home.
Buy with confidence — no surprises.

Before you sign, let a licensed inspector look in the roof space, under the floor and behind the walls. We deliver clear, photo-backed reports that show what is sound, what needs attention and what it is likely to cost.

About Us

Since 2009, we have been helping buyers, sellers and owners understand the true condition of a property, with thorough building and pest inspections and honest, plain-English advice.

Every inspection is carried out by a qualified builder, who checks the roof, structure, wet areas and exterior and records each finding with photos. We walk you through the report so you know exactly what matters.

Found a problem? We explain how serious it is, what repair is likely to cost and how to use it in your negotiation. We are independent, so we never gloss over a defect.
