We recently purchased a property and engaged Nigel to do a building and pest inspection. This was organized very quickly and thoroughly and Nigel could not have been more helpful. He walked me through the report and was very easy to talk to which made the whole process so much easier. As we are new to the area he was also able to recommend local tradespeople which we really appreciated.

Nigel was fantastic. He was able to fit in an inspection for us at very short notice two days before the auction and arranged everything with the agent. He sent an extremely comprehensive building and pest report with photos and language that was easy for us to understand. He was also happy to chat through things over the phone and answered a number of questions so that we were comfortable bidding on—and buying—the house. We know there are some minor maintenance issues to address when we are ready but also that the house we bought is solid and in good overall condition. I would absolutely recommend Nigel for any pre-purchase inspections. - 17/03/2017
