Nigel was very responsive to our needs, quick to arrange an inspection time with the vendor's agent and also to arrange and coordinate an electrical inspection at the same time. His report came quickly but he also gave me a verbal run-down immediately post the inspection. We are very pleased with his service. - 17/03/2020

I was advised to organise a building inspection and pest report on a house I was interested and have subsequently bought recently. Nigel was recommended and I could not have been more delighted. He made the whole process easy and uncomplicated, he was very reassuring and professional to deal with. And he was incredibly quick, both with the inspection and the subsequent report. I could not recommend him more highly. - 17/03/2020 

Fantastic are first home buyers and we brought in Bendigo. Nigel was very easy to speak to and was very accommodating and was able to explain the whole Building and Pest Inspection process. The report was great and Nigel went above ans beyond with the report including all photos and details. Will definitely be using Zync House Inspections in the future and be referring their service :)Thank you for the wonderful service! - 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 

This was our first building inspection and it went very smoothly and promptly. Nigel went to view the property the day after I called him and we had the report that evening. The report was thorough and easy to understand. I'd highly recommend ZYNC services. - 30/04/2020

Great detailed reports with imagery referencesWe 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”.

Both reports were in great details with imagery references.Recommendations were covered for all parts of building, fencing and retaining walls in garden areas.

Zync/Nigel performed two inspections for me pre purchase and gave meticulous reports for each. One of them greatly assisted in highlighting some expensive issues prior to purchase, the other provided me with purchase confidence and gave me a brilliant maintenance report to safeguard the property for the future.Nigel's operations are tech forward, punctual and personalised with added personal phone calls and advice. I highly recommend Zync for Hepburn/Macedon Ranges and beyond building and pest inspections. - 17/03/2020 

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.

As we are new to the area he was also able to recommend local tradespeople which we really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nigel to anyone who is purchasing a new property and wants the peace of mind that comes with a thorough inspection. - 29/10/2019 

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 

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 

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 

We would have no hesitations in recommending Nigel of Zync Inspections to any prospective purchaser in need of a building or pest inspection. Nigel was extremely thorough, providing a very detailed report with explanations, suggestions and photographs. He also went through the main issues he uncovered in the house by phone prior to sending through the detailed report. It was so easy to deal with Zync and Nigel put our minds at rest in regards to the property as we could see from the report that he inspected everything in his path. I'd encourage all buyers to use this service before purchasing - it's money well spent. - 17/03/2020

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 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 

Nigel's efficiency at organising a time with our agent and getting the building and pest report back to us promptly was impressive. The report was followed by a phone call and Nigel took us through his findings and provided recommendations on action we could/should take. He was able to answer our questions clearly and articulately. Highly recommend! - 17/03/2020 

Very happy with NIgel at ZYNC Inspections. He was friendly, helpful and happy to answer any questions about his services and report.

Extremely helpful and professional company. We chose ZYNC House Inspections of Gisborne because of the excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. We received our Pest and Building report the morning after the job was completed and the reports were comprehensive, clear, made recommendations and included photos. When we told Nigel that we knew no-one in the area he provided us with a list of recommended tradespeople that we could contact in the future. . - 08/12/2019 

Nigel Benn is highly recommended to anyone wanting a house inspection prior to purchase. We found him to be very professional, courteous and friendly. The inspection report provided by Nigel was comprehensive and provided us with a clear view of the state of the property. - 28/03/2021 

Excellent Service required a pest and building report and was recommended Nigel from the real estate agent . The report was completed very promptly , further to this the amount of detail and useful information in the report was great. He was able to point out many things that we had overlooked with our inspections of the property. My recommendation would be to get the report done before you sign any documents as often the contract states structural only as a way to void the contract , costs can quickly add up to repair even non structural. Don't buy a property without pest and building inspection - 17/03/2018 

Nigel from ZYNC inspections was very thorough, his report for our house inspection was easy enough to read and understand, with pictures showing the areas he was discussing.
