Best for
clients navigating complex council and shire approvals with specialist staff support

Business data from Google Business Profile, checked 2026-09-05.

What reviewers think

Fred and the team excel at guiding clients through tangled council and shire approvals, with one reviewer praising multiple follow-ups over 18 months to resolve permit and surveyor requirements. However, another experienced a rushed 15-minute inspection that missed large areas of the house, resulting in a report full of errors that took weeks to partially fix and was never corrected to the client's satisfaction.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Named inspectors like David, Richard, and Jarrad consistently praised for professionalism and detail. One recent review flagged a missed roof defect and questioned whether $775 justified mainly cosmetic findings, alongside poor admin communication.
