Inspection Services

Comprehensive building and pest inspection services backed by 30+ years of experience as a licensed builder.

For buyers

Pre-purchase clarity before contracts move too far and costly surprises appear later.

For new builds

Defect, handover, and practical completion inspections with a builder's eye on workmanship and compliance.

For owners and investors

Warranty and stage claim support to protect the property and the money already committed.

Real Inspection Findings

Photos from real inspections, not stock images.

Joe documents visible areas of the property with clear photos so buyers and owners can understand what was checked, what was observed, and what may need further explanation in the written report.

Why it matters

A good report should show clear evidence. These photos are examples of how inspection findings and property condition can be documented without relying on generic stock images.

Defect & Handover Inspections

Moving into a newly built home is exciting, but do not let that excitement cause you to overlook potential defects. Our handover inspection identifies any workmanship issues, incomplete work, or defects that the builder needs to rectify before you take possession. We document everything thoroughly so you have a clear list to present to your builder, ensuring your new home meets the standards you are paying for.

  • Defect identification & documentation
  • Workmanship quality assessment
  • Compliance verification
  • Builder rectification checklist

Practical Completion Inspections

At the practical completion stage of your build, it is critical to have an independent set of eyes verify that everything has been done to the agreed specifications. Our inspection covers all aspects of the construction, comparing the finished work against the plans and contract specifications. We identify any areas where the work falls short so these can be addressed before final payment.

  • Plans vs build comparison
  • Specification compliance check
  • Finish quality review
  • Comprehensive defect list

Stage Claim Inspections

Do not release progress payments without knowing the work has been done correctly. Our stage claim inspections provide an independent assessment at each construction milestone - slab, frame, lock-up, and fixing stages. We verify the work meets building codes and contract requirements before you authorise payment, protecting your investment throughout the entire build process.

  • Slab, frame, lock-up & fixing stages
  • Building code compliance
  • Progress vs payment verification
  • Independent professional assessment
