Joe and Karl were fantastic in their support to the need.

Queries were addressed very quickly and without issue, and they kept me informed of the timelines, progress and any communication with the Agent. Joe was great to offer and work through a review of his inspection and report and provided considerable confidence to the purchase of the property. I am more than happy to recommend WA BuildInspect to others, and I'll be delighted to request their services again when I purchase next.


Thank you so much for your time and effort to the need.

Would highly recommend!

Had the pleasure of dealing with Karl and Joe for a building and pest inspection. Their reports were well laid out, easy to follow and very detailed. They organised the inspection quickly, communication was superb and they were both incredibly polite and helpful.

Their pricing was also competitive & I would overall recommend them again.

Joe & Karl were great to deal with - their communication was timely & responsive throughout the process, while the inspection itself was done in detail. The selling agent also commented that Joe was covering additional aspects outside the structural inspection like working order warranties.

There is a massive difference between an inspector who follows a template and a construction professional who understands the structural integrity of a home.
