What Our Clients Say

We're a local team delivering straight up insight, and our client's think so too.

Very happy with the Insight team. The service was prompt, the report was incredibly comprehensive. I have recommended Insight to some friends and have had positive feedback from doing so.

Ziggy Dot

Excellent experience, I'll definitely be using them again in future and would highly recommend to anyone.I got booked in quickly, which was a huge relief since this was the first major issues I've had with my house that needed inspection. I dealt with Nick, who was super responsive, great communication, and professional: on top of actually knowing his stuff and delivering exactly what we needed from the report.

A Smarter Way to Inspect

The Insight Method

We don’t just show up and tick boxes. Our 6-step inspection method gives you full-circle clarity, from subfloor to rooftop.

We use drones, moisture meters, subfloor rovers and zip levels as standard, not as upsells. And we deliver every report within 24 hours.
