Excellent service. Really thorough review. Have had experience with multiple building and pest companies, this is by far. The best inspection report I’ve ever received. Full roof inspection, full inspection inside ceiling cavities. Picked up multiple things that have been missed on previous building and pest inspections. Could not recommend highly enough.

Without a doubt, asking Gavin from Ironside Building, Pest and Pool Inspections to help us with a prospective property was the best thing we ever did. From the get-go, Gavin was genuine, trustworthy and a thorough professional. No stone was unturned, no problem too big and no issue remained unsolved when it came to his investigations - all of which came at a very, very reasonable rate. He spotted major flaws we never saw coming and his recommendations for repair were surprisingly accurate. We will definitely recommend Gavin’s BPI services as well as his company  - without hesitation - to anyone that maybe looking at purchasing a property. A plus plus

I have only given Gavin 5 stars because that it all it will allow me. If I could give him 6 I would. I contacted Gav late last week to see if he could do my pre purchase inspection. He fitted me in with no issue what so ever. He turned up 10 minutes prior to the set time, which to me identifies his professionalism and work ethic. However, it does not stop there. Gav, did a very, very thorough inspection of my new OTP apartment. He has an eagle eye and picked up discrepancies only a true professional of the trade could. He went through everything discrepancy he picked up with me, and at the end told me what I should have done , not settle for, when the builders do their rectification. His report was in my email box within 90 minutes.
The report was detailed to the letter.
I thank you Gav for doing such a great job and a faultless service. I would have no problems what so ever in recommending Gav to anyone that requires his services. As I said, I am only giving him 5 stars because I can’t give him 6. Gav is a true professional and it is small business owners like him that gives me confidence to 100 percent recommend him.

Gavin was very helpful with our build and pest Inspection.
We obviously reached out to Gavin because of the amazing reviews already and Gavin just backed that up with his amazing work.

Gavin was quick to respond and provided us with the earliest slot available. He provided clear instructions on the process and kept us in the loop around everything. He coordinated with the agent well and was at the inspection on time and was very thorough with his work.

Post the inspection, he also took some time out to explain to me the issues he found and how he classified them as a major / minor defect.

Clear communication throughout and he sent us the build and pest report well before time.

Couldn't fault the service at all. Will definitely recommend. Thank you Gavin. :)

I can't say enough positive things about Gavin and his building and pest service. It was a large property with a lot of issues. Gavin spent a long time inspecting and documenting. He was there for hours and was incredibly thorough.

The report was detailed with very useful pictures to help us and the seller clearly understand the issue/area being discussed in the report. The report was factual and the professional and standardised language helped us secure a price decrease.

Gavin was happy to answer my questions. One of the reasons I engaged Gavin was for his knowledge in buildings and repairs. I am so grateful that this was the case as it was far more useful and informative than I ever hoped a pest inspection could be. I would use Gavin again and will happily actively recommend him to others. Couldn't have been happier or more impressed with Gavin and the service he provides.

Gavin did a pre purchase building and pest for our new home. He was very throughout, on time and took the time to take me around the property, show me his findings and advise accordingly (followed up by a extensive report and comments). Gavin’s inspection helped us negotiate some things to be fixed that we had no idea about (and would have cost us quite a lot in the short term). He was very patient in explaining and made it lamen terms that anyone could understand.

He was professional above all else. Exceptionally nice guy and it’s quite obvious he is very knowledgeable in his field and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. We will also be definitely using him again.

Very happy. Thank you so much!

Gavin is worth every dollar and more!!!!

Gavin spent over 1.5 hours today viewing a house for us, we had to leave, he continued longer, called us then provided a 121 page report, identified both minor and major defects in the property resulting in us pulling out of the contract dodging a massive bullet! He identified things not viewable to the naked eye. Gavin picked up on so many things that a builder (owner) tried to cover up including in the roof. Gavin, You’re incredible!!!

Gavin even reported that one of the flushers on one of the toilets as dodgy, which is just incredible! And for a similar price as other companies, you won’t go wrong with these Gavin and these guys.

Gavin recently completed the Building and Pest inspection for us as property buyers and we are extremely happy with the service he provided.  Gavin was very thorough, in fact, he was more thorough and knowledgeable  than anyone we’ve previously engaged. He took the time to explain the issues found on the property and their implications in both the short and long term.  We have no hesitation in recommending him.
