“John inspected two apartments that my partner and I were looking to purchase. As we were first home buyers we were very nervous about any issues involving the construction of the building. John was exceptionally thorough in his inspection, and highlighted to us all potential issues. I will get John to inspect any other home I look to purchase in the future and would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home.”
Thanks again for your help. Regards, A.D. 31/03/2010
I just want to thank you for the Detect A Leak report on the property that my daughter was looking at buying. Outwardly it looked good just recently painted inside it looked good. However your inspection identified many places where water was seeping in from outside and from the flat above. I am grateful for your report because it made us aware that we needed to spend substantial time and money fixing problems with rotted window frames and issues caused by the dampness. This gave us the option to get a firm quote for repairs or find another more habitable property. My daughter has learned a valuable lesson to find out and trust the facts born out by your report. The expenditure on your report saved us many thousands of dollars that we would have only discovered over time had she bought the property. Worst of all we may not have found a solution to the problems and we would have bought a property that we could not easily sell. She will use you again.
Thanks and regards B.B. 30/3/2010
I found John to be professional, thorough and courteous. He undertook a detailed and time consuming inspection of my rough-cast house, followed by an excellent written and photographic report. I was relieved there were no major issues. Excellent value for peace of mind."
