We recently used GoInspect for the handover inspection of our new home and were very impressed with their professionalism and exceptional attention to detail. Andrew conducted a thorough inspection and identified 25 issues, as well as approximately 50 paint and plaster defects—many of which we would never have noticed ourselves. The report was clear, well organised and supported by detailed photos, making it easy for us to raise each item with the builder. The whole process gave us much greater confidence before handover. I would highly recommend GoInspect.

Friendly and professional. Andrew came on time on the inspection. He was thorough and discussed the defects with us and the builder. We got the written report quickly as well. Would definitely use again in the future and highly recommend.

Really happy with Andrew from Goinspect. Extremely professional—the report was sent to me the same day and included slides highlighting all the fix-ups required for the builder. A friend referred me to Goinspect, and I’m very glad I used them!

We highly recommend GoInspect. They have helped us conducted 2 new house handover inspections and both were excellent. They really cared and spotted items that we could never have noticed ourselves. Their job was thorough and the reports helped a lot during our negotiations with the builder. We feel so lucky that we have chosen them as our inspection company.

Go inspect provided a great inspection service for us. They were very detailed with the inspection, and most importantly, provided the inspection report promptly, which meant that my settlement could be completed on schedule. I would highly recommend their service.

A few things you might be wondering

Questions before
you book?

We’ll help you understand the inspection, your report and what happens next.

Can I book before I know the inspection date?

Yes. You can leave the requested date blank and contact us when the property is ready. Any date you select is subject to availability and confirmation.

Do you inspect apartments and townhouses?

Yes. Handover and maintenance inspections are available for these property types. Construction stage inspections are available for eligible houses, duplexes and dual occupancies.

What is a second inspection for?

After your builder has completed repairs, we can return for an additional fee to check the reported defects and identify new visible damage within the agreed scope. Select two inspections when booking to include that follow-up visit.

Where do you inspect?

Residential inspections cover Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Logan, Ipswich, Redlands and surrounding South East Queensland service regions, plus selected Sydney areas. Choose your region in the quote form to check availability and pricing. Multi-residential projects are available Australia-wide.
