Our Inspection Services
Building Inspections: Our visual building inspection report covers the structural soundness of the building, significant defects to exterior and interior elements, the condition of the improvements to the property and any maintenance issues on the day of the building inspection. We inspect the exterior of the building and improvements to the property.
Pest Inspections: A full visual pest inspection of the exterior of the building and immediate surrounding property. All accessible internal rooms, the roof void and sub floor where applicable to detect termite activity, damage and conditions conducive to termite attack.
Handover Reports: A comprehensive written handover report calls attention to any possible defects or substandard work that does not comply with the Building Code.
Asbestos Audits: An asbestos audit inspects for any asbestos in or around the property. The report details the location, condition, type and recommendations about any asbestos within the property and may include photographic evidence.
Pool Fence Inspections: Pool fencing laws have changed in Queensland, and if your property has a pool you will eventually need to have this inspected for compliance.
Termite Management Treatments: We can eradicate termites from your property quickly and efficiently. We can advise you on Chemical Barriers installations & Bait monitoring systems and help you select the best solution to suit your property conditions.

We had our home inspected by Nathan Newton who told me over the phone that the only asbestos in the house was in the bathroom and the rest of the house was masonite. Only to discover after purchasing the property that all upstairs linings of the house (ceilings and walls) was asbestos cement sheet. Having young children in the home we cannot carry out any renovations on the property. For that to happen means removal of all asbestos cement sheet at a cost of roughly 30~50K. Thanks Nathan
Nathan Newton conducted a Visual Building & Pest Inspection of the property as requested by the client. At no time did Nathan provide an indication as to where asbestos was or was not located in the home as the identification of asbestos containing materials is a specialised field and does not form part of a Building & Pest Inspection. An Asbestos Audit is a completely seperate and specialised service that we do not offer on residential homes and requires samples of the home being removed from the dwelling and sent away to an independent labratory where they are analysed/tested, once complete a certificate of analysis is provided outlining the results. While we do not provide this service we highly recommend anyone looking to purchase a home built prior to 1990 to have an asbestos audit conducted on their new prospective property by a contractor that specialises in Asbestos Auditing.
Well, I was given an indication (over the phone) which is what motivated me to leave this review. If, at the time of inspection I had received the advice you just offered, I would have had an asbestos audit done. But it's too late for that. All I can hope for is that my experience and review may warn others of this situation. Thanks
We would like to personally thank Inspect My Home and David Yeowart for their professionalism in the way they handled the ‘handover’ of our investment property. Being new to this game, having a 3rd Party to assist us in a new build made us feel more comfortable with the whole process. David Yeowart went over and above in his inspection over the property and was able to impart his knowledge to us, which enabled us to understand which areas were are major concern and which areas were not. I highly recommend this company, and will be passing on their credentials to my colleagues. Not only were they value for money, they were competitive, efficient and professional.
Very unhappy customer. I booked a full house inspection and am very disappointed with what I received as a report. All other companies my friends and family have used inspect the whole house and all fittings and give a report on each room in detail. The report I received was structural only and cost more than others have paid for full reports! The company believe they outlined what they do in their terms and conditions but having re-read these it is not listed that they do not check for leaks etc or that the building report is structural only.
The attendant only quickly looked over the property and only pointed out things that were clear to anyone to see. They did not check for maintenance issues as I was told.
If you are after a full property report to cover yourself before buying a property would look else where as this is not the service this company offers.
InspectMyHome carries out all building and pest inspection reports in accordance with the Australian Standards 4391.1 & 4349.3 and informs all clients of the scope of our reports at the time of booking.
We're sorry to hear you are unhappy with your report, however the belief that we or any other licensed and insured company would carry out inspections for which the inspector is not qualified (such as Plumbing or Electrical) is misinformed.
However, as a duty of care we will report on any visual defects regarding plumbing and electrical and refer the client to the appropriate tradesperson for further advice.
