EXCELLENT Based on 15 reviews Posted on Google Punarjit SinghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thorough and Accurate Reporting I highly recommend Academic Building Inspections. Richard conducted a pre-purchase building and pest inspection for us, and his written report was exceptionally detailed, comprehensive, and clear. He meticulously documented every issue, including complex structural concerns and under-floor variations, providing clear photographic evidence for everything. Thanks to the bulletproof accuracy and clear definitions in his written report, we were able to make the right decision for our portfolio and protect our wealth. If you want an inspector who provides a highly thorough, standard-compliant document that truly protects a buyer, Richard is the person to hire.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Simply fill out the form. We just need the property address and the service type.
No. Once you book, we handle all coordination with the real estate agent for access.
Just drop a note via the form or better yet give us a call, we are only too happy to assist.
Payment is required via card or bank transfer before the final report is released.
Definitely yes. Many buyers assume a builder’s warranty covers everything, but certain factors-like improper landscaping can actually void that warranty. Furthermore, if the property does have major hidden defects, discovering them after you buy, may
mean entering a stressful, costly dispute with the builder. Getting an inspection now gives you the facts before you take on that risk.
