Pre-purchase inspection in Franklin

published

Third time lucky that we have employed Wayne to do us a Building Inspection.
Always prompt to complete the job. Interesting off cuff commentary as we followed him around with tips and suggestions on minor matters which we found very helpful . Very prompt with written report. Wayne ticked all the boxes for us.

Elaborate and super fast

Les Camilleri inspected a property we are keen on. His service was professional, prompt and elaborate. He took time to go through the report with us at a time that suited us.
His report was eye opening and was so detailed. It really mad eus aware of things we never would have known or things we missed at the inspections.

We recommend his services and will be using him again in the future.

Very Professional Service

We had Mark come to inspect a property in Warwick that we were intending to buy.
Mark arrived on time and was very friendly and respectful toward us and also to the tenants who were at the property at the time. Mark took the time to explain what he was looking for and how his specialised equipment worked and afterwards, informed us of what his general findings were. His detailed report was emailed to us promptly and was very thorough and easy to understand. Because of this, we were able to make an informed decision.
We will certainly be using Mark again and recommending him to others.
Kindest Regards - Nick and Annie

Extremely detailed and extensive Inspection

published

We engaged Stephen Tye of Jim's Building Inspections, Gympie to conduct a pre purchase building and pest inspection. We are more than happy to r actions outlined to prevente commend his services to anyone in a similar position, or for home owners just to check on the condition of their own home. He took his time and carried out an extremely comprehensive inspection, and then provided us with a very detailed report. I am quite confident that any possible concerns have been identified before they become actual problems. All issues were well explained. Highly recommended.

Very thorough and detailed inspection

David Piva was my Building and Timber Pest Inspector and he has done a tremendous job in providing a detailed analysis of my property. I was recommended to him through relatives who had also used his services and he did not disappoint! He was able to provide a detailed report and recommendations which has aided me in finalizing my purchase decision. This was extremely important, especially for a first home buyer, this provided great guidance on elements to look out for. 10/10 !

Very thorough inspection

published

Very happy with Nigel and Corrine Crocker from Jim Building Inspection, Carindale. . They took over 2 hours to do a thorough inspection, very impressive. Had, previously, engaged two separate inspectors for two properties, they both took half an hour, and the end results were horrific n ended up costing thousands to fix the problems that were not picked up by the inspectors. Good with the best.

Fantastic service!

Jim’s building inspections, in particular Andrew Skinner was extremely thorough and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a building inspection. Such a down to earth and genuine person and very professional.

Outstanding professional services from Mark Rowlingson

published

Mark Rowlingson has provided me his professional services in more than one property. Mark is very knowledgeable and has provided me with very thorough inspections. Mark’s reports were very informative and delivered to me very promptly; the reports normally include photographs of all areas of concern.
Communications were always excellent from beginning to end. Mark is always great in accommodating with my busy schedule when making an inspection time. Mark is always available to be contacted for any further clarification about the inspection.
I can’t recommend Mark enough and I will definitely engage Mark’s professional services again in my future inspection needs.

Outstanding professional service.

Dominic from Jim's Building Inspections Inspections was both personal and professional in his conduct. He not only provided a very thorough inspection and report, but strongly encouraged my wife and I to be part of the inspection process. He walked us through his findings and explained in detail the various issues found with our new property. I would highly recommend this service.

Absolute professionals!

I worked with Mark and the team at Jim’s Building inspections in Brisbane and had a fantastic experience. I was an interstate property investor and I felt I was in good hands right from the start. Mark has a wealth of knowledge and experience and gave me some excellent guidance through the process. He made himself available to answer my questions even though the busy pre-Xmas rush. I can’t recommend them highly enough and I’ll be using this business for all my future inspections

Hi
I am building with one of the major builder and they reassured me that they have their own 3rd party inspectors to check through all the stages of build from checking of materials used as in contract till handover. But of course I would not take their words for it. Especially when there are so many inexperienced tradies around that go for fast job and fast money! Do you do such full stage inspection? How much will it cost and for which stage? Thanks matey!

Hi Elle, I totally agree with you, do not trust what the builder says regardless of the size, they always try to cover their fedects unless it’s too obvious or you bring it up. We did not do a full stage review, we only did a final stage inspection but even so lots of defects were identified, some of which you would never be aware of! It cost us only a couple of hundreds and it’s well worth it. The inspector gave us a very detailed inspection report plus lots of advice on how to deal with the builder which is very useful. Hope my answer helps.

Hi Ellen,
I totally again with Z.Chen.
My builder promised my wife and I that he would build our master piece, and just before the build started I said I was getting my own private inspector in and said that I'd have to pay a admin fee to allow the inspector on-site. So that scared us off as that fee wasn't in our budget. We do kick ourselves for not getting every stage done, but we are so glad that we did get the final inspection done as there were so many defects that I didn't even see and I would visit the property every 3rd day. We were ment to be settling this friday but thats no longer happening due to all the problems that were found.
I highly recommend that you do get every stage checked yes it may cost some $$$ but don't do the same mistake that I did. Hope this can help
