Nigel did an outstanding job as our building and pest inspector! He was extremely thorough, and his attention to detail really impressed us. What stood out even more was that he took the time to personally call me and explain any issues he found, making sure I understood everything clearly. His report was well-organised and easy to follow, and his professionalism gave us real peace of mind. If you're after someone reliable, knowledgeable, and great at communication, I highly recommend Nigel. Thanks again for the top-notch service! - 26/09/2024 

Nigel did a house inspection for us in Romsey recently and made the process easy! He had the report to us the following day and even went out of his way to ring and run through his detailed report. Nigel also ran through what other houses in the area have that is similar/could be an issue in the future. Would highly recommend! - 17/03/2020

Great detailed reports with imagery references We recently purchased a property in country Daylesford and required building and pest inspections for the purchase. Nigel was recommended by a local real estate agent commenting “I would use Nigel when I purchase my own properties”. When mentioned to the agent selling our property, she commented “Nigel is a great inspector.” Inspections were conducted on time as scheduled and reports were delivered on the same day. Both reports were in great details with imagery references. Recommendations were covered for all parts of building, fencing and retaining walls in garden areas. Nigel contacted me while I was reading the reports to discuss and answer any questions we had. The reports gave us great confidence and comfort in purchasing the property. We highly recommend Nigel for building and pest inspections. - 28/02/2022 

Zync were super helpful and prompt when it came to organising a pest inspection for our property. Nigel came highly recommended and i'd absolutely do the same if someone I know asked for a recommendation. - 17/03/2018 

Nigel was highly recommended in the area and definitely delivered. He was very prompt and inspected the property throughly. When buying a house you always look at the design and layout, and to have someone go through and inspect every detail, get up on the roof and below the house is great! I would recommend Nigel for anyone who is purchasing a property, its so important to look past the beauty and really consider if any damages or defects are worth the purchase! Thanks ZYNC! - 17/12/2020 

I could not recommend Zync Inspections highly enough. Nigel conducted a building and pest inspection of a primary home and outbuildings relating to a home purchase. Nigel provided all the information required upfront, conducted a thorough inspection of the property, provided a comprehensive written report by the afternoon of the inspection and followed up to ensure I understood the report and answer any questions. The information provided was thorough and of great value - fantastic service. - 17/03/2019 

Thank you for a very thorough inspection and friendly and helpful service! The inspection report provided by ZYNC Inspections was incredibly detailed and included photographs of every item discussed. The report also included helpful advice regarding areas where repair work is needed in the building. As a first-time home buyer, Nigel's report was incredibly helpful to me in my decision-making process around purchasing the property. It has helped me to identify and prioritize necessary repair jobs to the property.I highly recommend ZYNC inspections! - 17/05/2020 

Nigel inspected my property before I purchased it and I was so impressed with his insight into structure, soil and overall report. He turned the report around really quickly and provided photos as evidence, which will help when it comes to any potential renovations further down the track. - 24/10/2021 

Nigel undertook a building and pest inspection report for me in relation to a house purchase. Nigel did a great job! He was flexible (making himself available when it suited me and the sales agent), attentive (he sent relevant paperwork in advance and explained what was required) and punctual (he did what we agreed at the time agreed) and very helpful. Nigel not only reported on the property but then had a conversation with me to give me more detail and answered my follow up queries as well. It was great to be able to rely on Nigel’s expertise! I can definitely recommend Nigel at ZYNC! - 01/12/2019

Nigel is extremely professional and a great communicator. We received our inspection report very quickly and were able to make a successful offer with full confidence in the quality of the property.

We would not hesitate to recommend Nigel for any buildings and pest inspection requirements. - 17/03/2019 

Nigel Benn undertook a property inspection on a home my wife and I were considering purchasing not too long ago. It was an off-grid, mud brick home on a bush block in Regional Victoria. Nigel was prompt, organized and a pleasure to deal with. His report blew me away!! It was very extensive with heaps of images and written descriptions throughout the report. Nigel takes his work seriously and is a true professional within his industry.Thanks again Nigel and best of WishesGary Winter - 30/06/2021

Impressed with the service I received when having a pest and building inspection on a property I was interested in. Nigel was prompt and assisted with having the inspection completed the next day.The report was thorough and recommendations taken into account whenmaking an offer. Thanks Nigel would certainly recommend Zync in the future. - 17/03/2019 

I had Nigel conduct two home inspections for me whilst looking for my first home. He was always prompt and courteous. He was very thorough and compiled two of the best home inspection reports that i've ever seen. They were very detailed and outlined all the problem areas of both properties. I even had the real estate agent ask for his details after witnessing how much attention to detail his reports were. I have no problem recommending his services to anyone looking to have a building inspected. - 17/03/2017 

Excellent service. Upon putting a deposit on my house Nigel responded to do a building/pest inspection within two days. This was relevant to me going ahead with the purchase. He explained clearly what he would be doing and I had the detailed results emailed to me the next day. He also called me and gave a verbal response on his findings and answered my questions clearly and gave me advice on what type of professional I should contact for one problem he found and also informed me on a couple of things he couldn’t do because of lack of access. Nigel was friendly and very professional and I had absolute trust on his opinion. Well worth the money for peace of mind and helpful advice to avert something that would have been invisible to me but could have caused quite a problem down the track. I highly recommend Nigel for his invaluable service when buying property. - 30/04/2020 

We are so happy with the service Nigel provided for us on 2 separate occasions! He explained everything and the report was so easy to follow. I will defiantly be recommending him to everyone. Thanks heaps. - 17/03/2020

Worth every single cent and then some. On two separate occasions, Nigel has saved me many thousands of dollars in repairs of major building defects that were invisible on casual inspection. He went above and beyond to explain his inspection to me in detail. With my recent purchase, he supported me to advocate for works to be completed that the vendor's plumber was saying was fixed (when it wasn't) and on another his report enabled me to pull out of a contract when the defects found were too significant and costly and the vendor wouldn't negotiate on price. Very grateful on both occasions! Can't recommend highly enough. - 18/11/2025 

Nigel provided a comprehensive building + pest report with very little notice. The quality of the report, complete with photos and explanations, was good quality, which meant we could make an informed decision about our prospective property purchase. - 17/03/2018 

Nigel came highly recommended when we purchased our new home. From the outset he was a pleasure to deal with at a reasonable price. He dealt directly with the Vendors Real Estate agent and provided a prompt and professional report. His post inspections comments were also very helpful. - 25/03/2021 

Nigel at Zync was fantastic. One call and an Email with my agents details and the rest was all managed by Nigel. We received the report the same day too! Competitive cost to sleep easy knowing the property is in good condition. - 17/03/2020 

Nigel was fantastic to deal with. Very responsive, and after the report was sent through he called to go over it and answer any questions that had arisen. Very thorough and reports went above and beyond what I believe to be the standard for a home inspection. - 13/01/2026

As a first home buyer with little knowledge about houses, I really needed a thorough building and pest inspector to help me out. Nigel took the time to write a detailed report, then explained that report to me over the phone. He answered all my questions and was very professional to deal with, start to finish. I highly recommend Nigel from ZYNC House Inspections. - 17/03/2018
