TESTIMONIALS

Courtney

Thank you Karen! We also wanted to take a moment to call out the amazing job Matt did during his inspection on Friday. His attention to detail was excellent, he went above and beyond to check the elements of the build (beyond waterproofing) that were concerning us and explained things thoroughly where needed. We know that you are busy but the inspection didn’t feel at all rushed. Our build has been pretty challenging but working with the team from Houspect is so easy.

Scott & Rachel

Hi Jasna, 
Thank you for your report. 
It is very comprehensive and takes some of the stress out of the building process. 
The inspector has picked up on a lot of things we might have overlooked. 
We are glad we decided to use Houspect.
Kind regards, 
Scott & Rachel

Hi Kaye,

We recently had a house inspection done through Houspect and would just like to complement you on an extremely thorough and easy to read report.  We were very impressed by not only the written report but also the many photos that were also included. Unfortunately on this occasion we  were not the successful bidder on this property but were extremely pleased we were armed with all the information re the building and will not hesitate to use your service again when the next property (hopefully) comes up.

Jo

Tracey, you were fantastic and absolutely the reason we choose you.

Trevor was exceptionally thorough and very generous to talk through the findings as well as providing the written report. The photos and extent of detail was beyond what we had expected.

We will definitely be back in the future.

Warmest wishes to you and the team

Monica

The inspection and communication has been of such high quality. Also the report is very comprehensive and will help resolve our issues. Thank you again

Angela

Big thank you to Houspect. Not only is it great you have a inspector local to the Southern Highlands but that you were able to look at 2 properties in 2 days and turn the reports around overnight.

I’m very happy to recommend Houspect.

Philippa

We have used Houspect three times over the course of our house search, and each time I have been so impressed by the customer service, the effort that Rochelle and the bookings team went to when trying to squeeze in an urgent inspection for us. The level of detail of the reports is great and it’s given us a working list of items to be aware of and slowly repair once we move into our new home. Cannot imagine using another inspector after finding Houspect – lovely, straightforward staff and inspectors made our house search much easier.

Deborrah

From first contact with Suzanne at the office and the inspections, it was a breeze! Suzanne arranged everything perfectly. The building inspector was on time and thorough as was the pest inspector.

Many thanks all.

David

I cannot recommend Houspect highly enough, Richard and his team were great to deal with. We had a Vendor Report done prior to our auction and I believe it made the difference in getting the price we wanted as it gave great confidence to our overseas buyer. The Houspect report is worth every cent.

Aaron

If you are building a new home, PLEASE READ!!!!!!. I was nervous and worried about an approaching final inspection to move into my home.

I have no building experience or friends who could help me, and only the trust in a builder and site supervisor, who wanted to build me a home and walk away as quick as they had built it. This is why I engaged the services of Houspect.

I struck GOLD with Mickey and his team.

They were fantastic…….

The first phone call to Houspect was the help I needed to know things would be done. I was guided through what was going to happen and an inspector was organised to come out and help with my inspection. Nigel found some faults I would have otherwise missed.

I have just moved into my new home and very happy. I would like to strongly recommend the services of Houspect.

Thank you again Micky, Nigel, and Enza for your help.

Tia

A priority inspection was organised & a report was compiled & sent to me within 24 hours WOW that is what I call service.  Payment was easy & not stressful.

Houspect will be highly recommended by myself & my family to anyone that requires a building inspection.

Thanks again to the Team at Houspect.

Natalie

We engaged Houspect for progress inspections when building our new home. They provided thorough reports in a very timely manner. Great customer service and very easy to communicate with when arranging inspection times. They were also very accommodating with one inspection when we unfortunately had to give them very short notice – that was much appreciated!

Jenny

We were really happy with the service from you guys and had been recommending to family and friends who are building. Your reports identified issues that we would never have known about, which allowed us to follow up with the builder during warranty period.

The service was outstanding. One of our inspections was right before the gyprock and your inspector identified some issues with the timber frames which needed to be fixed immediately. He went out of his way to turn around the report ASAP for us so that we could use it to speak to the builder.
