Professional Building Inspections in Newcastle
At Smaart Building Consultancy, we offer professional building inspections to commercial and residential clients in Newcastle. Our inspector is trained, experienced, and licensed to provide unmatched building inspections. The smartest choice you can make if you want to buy a house is to conduct a pre-purchase building inspection. Failure to perform a building inspection puts you at risk of purchasing a building with structural defects, making it potentially unsafe.
We are a licensed building consultancy, members of the Master Builders Association, and are fully insured in professional indemnity and public liability. The owner, Steve, is our only inspector, and we do not subcontract to other organisations. This allows us to maintain our quality services. Steve has a multi-disciplined background with over 30 years of experience in residential and commercial construction and inspections. Let us help you make a worthy investment.
Benefits of Building Inspections in Newcastle
Our Newcastle building inspection services are crucial and done to describe the structure’s physical condition. When you’ve found your dream home, it is easy to go ahead and make an offer. However, it is wise to hire a building inspector to look at the property to avoid problems and costly repairs down the line. Here are the benefits of hiring a professional building inspector.
- Identify Problems You Cannot See
It is natural to get carried away when you first see your dream property. A building inspector understands the little details that can escape your untrained eyes. For instance, an excellent paint job can cover up rising dampness. - Plan for Future Costs
A building inspection report will highlight significant repair costs that you will incur in future. This will help you plan for these costs and consider them when bargaining the property. - Assessing Your House Before Buying
A building inspection will inform you of the pros and cons of choosing a specific property.


Book Our Building Inspections in Newcastle
We provide various professional building inspection services across Newcastle, Maitland, Nelson Bay, and the surrounding areas in NSW. The inspection services include:
- Pre-purchase building
- Timber pest

A building inspection takes around two hours to complete depending on the size of the house and land. Once we have inspected the property, Steve will begin preparing the inspection. He will send the report to you through email within 24 hours of the inspection.
A building inspection is an examination of the property’s current condition. It is not an appraisal that judges the market value or compliance with local government legislation. So, no building can pass or fail an inspection. The report will describe the building’s physical condition and indicate what needs replacement or fixing. Please call us today for unmatched services.
