Services
Building Inspection
Our building inspections provide a thorough assessment of residential and commercial properties, identifying structural defects, safety hazards, and maintenance issues. Using Australian Standards A.S 4349.1, we examine interior/exterior elements, sub-floor spaces, and roof cavities. Licensed inspectors document findings in detailed reports to help clients make informed property decisions.
Pest Inspection
Pest inspections detect timber pest activity including subterranean termites, seasoned timber borers, and wood rot. Conducted in accordance with A.S 4349.3, we assess damage severity, infestation risks, and required remedial measures. Thermal imaging and visual checks cover interior, exterior, and roof cavity areas to identify hidden pest activity.
Meth Testing
Meth residue testing identifies contamination from clandestine labs or drug use. Accredited technicians use approved kits to detect invisible, odourless residues that pose health risks. We provide decontamination services and property restoration, ensuring safe levels through rigorous EPA-compliant processes for Queensland and Northern Territory properties.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging detects temperature anomalies to identify hidden issues like termite nests, water leaks, and insulation gaps. This non-invasive technology captures infrared radiation patterns, revealing problems invisible to the naked eye. It's particularly effective for early detection of moisture penetration and pest activity in wall cavities.
Pool Inspection
Pool inspections assess structural integrity, filtration systems, and safety compliance. We examine pool shells, coping, surrounds, and drainage systems to identify cracks, corrosion, and maintenance issues. Reports highlight required repairs to ensure safe operation and compliance with Queensland pool safety regulations for buyers and sellers.

The inspector who carried out the Building & Pest inspection was punctual, discreet, polite and very professional. The report that was provided was very detailed. I was not able to attend the inspection and had some follow questions, which the inspector was more than happy to be contacted about them.

I wouldn't trust my building & pest inspection to anyone else. Inspex was very professional, took care of organizing the inspection with my real estate agent, and promptly gave our report the next day. We found out that all their inspectors are licensed builders so they really know about houses which gave us peace of mind that we chose the right inspectors.
