Highly Recommended.A proper B&P inspection requires three key things:1. Experience2. Proper tools for inspection3. Willingness to do a thorough job.Greg from Dedant had all three of them. Thanks to his efforts in not just doing the inspection but also in explaining those issues to me.

Honestly if I could rate 10/10 I would. This company and its staff are amazing - worth every single penny and more. We had a house we were looking at buying and the gentleman who was doing it was so incredibly thorough with all the issues (there was a lot) he was late to his other appointment (I’m so sorry about that!). Thank you for everything - we will for sure use you for our next building and pest and we can’t thank you enough

Used Deadant a few months ago for a pre-purchase home inspection. Although the report looked excellent and was very thorough there were parts of the house that they refused to get to in the loft, I can navigate and get to these areas easily myself. Overall a good report but the T&C basically get them out of any issues if you have them in future, I have not had issued with the house I purchased at all.I did make contact with the Inspector after but then after asking a further question he did not reply to me.

Thanks Rick from Dedant for your professional and prompt service. Rick was able to explain clearly the issues that he found with the property and was more than happy to answer any questions, even a few days after the inspection when we had queries. The report was thorough with clear photos of any issues that were picked up and delivered so quickly. A wonderful friendly and professional service that I would highly recommend to anyone. Thanks so much, Rick.

We were recommended to Dedant and we couldn’t have been happier with the service. They scheduled us in very quickly and the process was easy. Our inspector on the day was Rick and he was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. He was more than happy to answer any questions we had and made sure we fully understood his findings. Additionally, the report we received came through shortly after the inspection and was very detailed and easy to understand. We will definitely use Dedant again and will be recommending them.

I would 100% recommend Dedant. I used Dedant to conduct 2 building and pests while my partner and I were looking to buy our first home. I could not recommend Stephen higher.

Thank you so much Stephen!

I didn't realise I hadn't already given a review.I called dedant about 9 months ago because I had found some fairly big and obvious things wrong in my house after a different company had done the prepurchase inspection and given it the all clear. I wanted to make sure that something less obvious like termites hadn't also been missed.While I can't remember the name of the gentleman who did the inspection he was very thorough, methodical and talked me though things with clear and helpful explanations. It was night and day to the other company I used.If I could go back to 22 I would have used dedant from the start, not the other company recommended by a family member 😩
