Our Building and Pest Inspection Brisbane Teams cover all areas of Brisbane.
No matter how the media experts portray the property market, areas of Brisbane are always active.
With a number of home improvement shows on TV, we’ve seen an increase in weekend warriors doing their own renovations. This means it’s even more important to get a Building and Pest Inspection Brisbane.
We’ve seen buyers walk away from shoddy DIY work and extensions that were not submitted to or approved by the local council.
Our Building Inspectors have a wealth of knowledge and can save you heartache and money, now and in the future.
Two inspectors working together
Each of our Building and Pest Inspection Brisbane teams consists of two inspectors:
- A Building Inspector who is a Master Builder and is certified to conduct Pre-Purchase Building Inspections
- A Timber Pest Inspector who holds a senior position within the company and is certified to conduct Pre-Purchase Timber Pest Inspections
Each team carries out a 200-point checklist and notifies each other of possible areas of concern.
Having two inspectors, both highly skilled in their own field, means you get an extremely thorough Building and Pest Inspection.
Each team has sufficient time to complete their digital reports onsite using their iPads. These are then sent through to the office for quality control and emailed to the customer, all within four hours of the completion of the inspection.
Be careful when a company offers digital reports but doesn’t complete them onsite. This can mean they are taking photos onsite and then, at the end of the day, writing the reports at home and going off memory to write about the photos taken.
This scenario is all too common and things can be missed.
Our Building and Pest Inspection Equipment
Each of our teams carries state-of-the-art equipment, which includes:
- Thermal Imaging Camera – for termites and high moisture detection

What if Major Building Defects or Termites are found?
Sound Building Inspections is three companies in one:
- A construction company
- A Building and Pest Inspection company
- A pest control company
This is great news for our customers because if areas of concern are found in the property during the Building and Pest Inspection Brisbane Report, we can advise you on the process and costs of rectifying them.
This is even the case with active Termites, past Termite Activity, Termite Damage and future-proofing your house from termites with a Termite Barrier.
The inspectors will run through the details with you onsite or over the phone and then include the quotes in your Building and Pest Report.
Termite damage can sometimes be hidden in areas you would never see during a normal property inspection, including between storeys of a two-level house.
So please take the time to have a read through our website and see what we have to offer.
