    Jason did a fantastic job on our building and pest inspection for a property we're buying. Not only was it thorough, but Jason walked me through key parts of it which gave me the context I needed to know what is critical and what isn't. Very fast, on time and reliable - I would absolutely use again.

    Absolutely outstanding service from Jason at Jim’s Building Inspections. From the very first call, he was professional, friendly, and incredibly thorough. The inspection was done with amazing attention to detail, and the report was clear, easy to understand, and packed with useful photos and explanations. What really stood out was how he took the time to walk us through the findings and explain what actually mattered versus what was minor. It gave us so much confidence in our decision and saved us from a lot of stress (and potentially a lot of money!). If you’re buying a property and want someone honest, meticulous, and genuinely looking out for your best interests, I couldn’t recommend Jason more highly. Worth every cent.

    Premium pre-purchase inspection. Auction was only a couple of days away and Jason was able to liaise with the real estate agent and arrange the inspection, getting the report to me at short notice. Communication over the phone/email/text was great, and the report was laid out well with recommendations on how to handle them in future. Can recommend. :)

    Jace arrived early and was already completing the inspection when I arrived. He was extremely personable and knows his profession inside and out. He explained issues our house had in easy to understand terms which I appreciated. Our report came back by the end of the day and was very detailed. We will happily recommend Jace to our friends.

Frequently asked questions

How much do building inspectors typically charge?
Costs vary depending on the type of inspection, property size, report detail and travel required. Many building inspectors charge an hourly rate plus a call-out fee, with higher rates for after-hours attendance. This page shows live pricing to help you compare quotes.
Do building inspectors charge call-out fees?
Yes — many building inspectors charge a call-out fee to attend and assess a property. That fee typically covers travel and the initial assessment and is separate from the hourly rate and any report costs. It's sensible to confirm any call-out or minimum charges when requesting quotes.
Do building inspectors need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Building inspection and certifying work generally needs to be carried out by a licensed or registered building inspector or certifier under state and territory rules. In New South Wales the responsible authority is the NSW Building Commission (formerly NSW Fair Trading). Look for providers who display valid state registration, an ABN with GST registration and appropriate public liability and professional indemnity insurance.
