He did a very comprehensive Building & Pest Inspection for me and I cannot thank him & the team enough. They were extremely professional at all times, responsive to my many calls and also charged a fair and better price than others that quoted me.

I did my pre building and pest inspection with Dedant. The inspectors did an excellent work and a... thorough inspection of the property spending approx 1.5 hours. The inspector also provided me with feedback on the inspection as well as recommendations to keep the property safe from pests. I have used Dedant also in the past and have been very happy with their service. They are very timely and conduct the task in a professional manner. Will definitely recommend this company to everyone.read more

The inspector turned up on time and met all requirements of the real estate and current owner.... Walked me through some of the issues he found and helped me to understand the implications. I was disappointed with the report, but I think that is a common feeling for me with all pre-purchase inspection reports. A 64-page report that really only provided me with some good information but always seemed to be followed by a recommendation to have an expert in a particular aspect of construction before purchase. Clearly this absolves the inspector of absolutely any accountability for issues found after purchase. There were 17 pages in the report which were terms and conditions and detracted from the report content. I'd like to see those T&Cs in a separate document (perhaps before engaging the provider) so I could focus on the information specific to my property in the report.read more

Having built and lived continuously in my first home for 34 years, I now found myself as being... technically a first home buyer at 59 years of age. Dedant Building and Pest Inspections was recommended by my real estate agent for a pre-purchase inspection. From the first time I rang Dedant Building and Pest Inspections to explain the process, they organised everything professionally from the competitive quote to the inspection to the report. They confirmed the date and time of the inspection which suited. I was unable to attend the inspection, but they arranged for my real estate agent to be there on my behalf and who rang me immediately after the inspection and gave me complete reassurance the inspection was done in a very thorough manner. Brian, the inspector, rang me personally first thing the next day to go over his inspection and explained his findings in detail and answered any questions or concerns I had in detail. He took the time to make me feel very confident about the property and went as far as saying, a very well maintained property and moving forward with the usual ongoing maintenance would be a lovely home and surrounds for many years to come. The fully comprehensive report arrived soon after. Thanks to Dedant Building and Pest Inspections, Brian for your professionalism. Would happily recommend your company and your service.
