On the tools
Real inspectors. Real Sydney homes.
Every day of the week.
Your inspector turns up in a marked vehicle, in uniform, with the gear to check the parts most buyers never see — subfloors, roof cavities, wet areas and eaves.
Uniformed & fully insured
A licensed inspector on every job — roof, subfloor, wet areas and everything in between.
Roof & thermal
Thermal imaging across a Sydney tiled roof — spotting lifted tiles, cracked flashings and hidden moisture.
Subfloor & termite
Subfloor inspection under a Sydney home — probing bearers and joists for termite damage, rot and moisture.
