Building and Pest
Inspection
Meticulous. Experienced. Professional.
Residential
Body Corporate
Commercial
If you are buying a home or unit, you should always have the condition of the dwelling inspected prior to handing over the final payment or agreeing to settlement.
During your building and pest inspection, Brisbane Building Reports thoroughly looks through your property from top to bottom (including the roof and subfloor where safe and accessible). With over 40 years of experience in the building industry, our expert inspector, Chis, will identify any building defects and/or pest issues that may devalue the property or become a safety risk. To further this, BBR also uses the latest thermal imaging technology to see what the naked eye cannot. Have peace of mind in knowing the quality of your property before buying or selling.
We are required by the QBCC to undertake all of our inspections in accordance with Australian Standards (AS 4349.1-2007) but we pride ourselves in going above and beyond these already high standards to ensure you receive the best possible service.
The best part? A detailed and easy-to-read report is available within 12 hours. For more information on why you need a building inspection prior to buying your new home, visit our blog here.
You will always get it straight from us, that’s our guarantee to you.

I have had a business working relationship with Chris through the real estate industry and have found Brisbane Building Reports to be very effective in what they do. There has always be a quick turn around in requests with very high and effective communication on what the results are. Chris is always more than happy to spend the time on the phone talking through potential issues and always has a solution. I look forward to continuing to work with Brisbane Building Reports in the future

We used Chris for a house inspection and found him to be excellent. He organised the inspection well within the week, was terrific with communication and prompt to reply to texts. He arrived on time and explained the concerns with the property in easy-to-understand terms. His report was comprehensive and well written. I will recommend his services to any of my friends in the future.
Ben ThomsonA quick thank you for the Building & Pest Inspection Read More
Just a quick thank you for your service. We looked over again and really happy with the report and information that you provided. As such, we have proceeded with the purchase of the property and it successfully settled last week. Again – thanks you for this and we obviously have your details for the future (one day when we get another investment all going well!).

I was very impressed by the high quality of your work and report. You have shown your professionalism in the detail of work in your inspection. You were very willing to provide clarification when we requested it, and made us feel comfortable with the house. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a building and pest inspection…

Chris was readily available and provided a detailed building and pest inspection. The report is well set out and easy to follow. He was also happy to have chat after completing the inspection and report to talk through any issues and information. I will use him again in the future should I need the service.

Chris was very prompt at arranging an inspection time at short notice, including working around a last minute change requested by the current occupants. He was thorough and offered both in depth and practical advice on any issues. I would use him again without question.

You did an inspection/report for my daughter Avalon yesterday at Lady
Musgrave Drive Springfield Lakes.
Just wanted to thank you for the report and your follow up call to her.
Really appreciate it and your guidance. For a father of a young daughter
purchasing her first property, you certainly had her (and probably more
importantly, me) very happy with your efforts and professionalism.
Thanks again, very much appreciated.
