If your building is in Far North Queensland, we can do an inspection for you.

Immediate Reports Issued on the Property

The reports are ready for publication on completion of the inspection. There is no waiting around - you will recieve the report as soon as we are finished. The major benefit of this is that everything is explained to you at the property with the benefit of going through the report.


Our building inspectors are highly trained and most importantly licensed and insured to carry out the work they perform. With 40 years specific experience carrying out pre-purchase building inspections we are proud of our reputation as a professional and a most thorough independent inspection company.

Most Experienced Building Inspection Company in NQ

We do not rely on or solicit real estate agents for bookings, giving us the advantage of not being vulnerable to any conflict of interests, it also allows us to defend your rights under the privacy act.
