East Gippsland Housing Inspections Bairnsdale

Couldn’t recommend these guys enough! Ended up saving me thousands of $!
Now moving into a winner of a home!

We used Steve twice for our pre-purchase inspections; the first for a lovely fully renovated home which we had bought that turned out to be a lemon. The property had such serious structural defects (the house floor was sinking) that it rendered our sales contract void. The second inspection was for the home we eventually purchased.

Steve's reports are so detailed and thorough that every aspect of the building structure was inspected; they almost border on condition reports. His reports are full of photographs that clearly illustrate the problems encountered. He uses state-of-the-art measuring equipment to detect hidden but important flaws like moisture in the walls/subfloor and uneven floor levels that are not easy to see with the naked eye.

I can understand why some vendors would be disappointed by Steve's reports, but ultimately he works for us buyers, and is there to protect us from buying defective properties. Personally, I would want my building inspector to be as diligent and strict as possible in assessing compliance to building standards. Buying a home is for most of us the biggest financial decision of our lives. There is no one else I'd rather use to ensure I have all the relevant information available to make an informed purchasing decision.

Highly recommended.

We were extremely happy with the service that Steve provided. He was very professional and responsive. We were never left hanging to be called back. We would definitely recommend Steve for anybody needing a building inspection. ️

As a new home buyer in the East Gippsland region the issues that would normally plague home buyers were very unknown to me. Mr ALSOP gave me a no BS estimate of issues and repair costs for the property I was purchasing, so I could make the best informed decision when purchasing. The detail and thoroughness of the inspection left nothing to the imagination and gave me a very very good picture of the work that lay ahead of me in regards to the property. These guys are punctual, personable, and professional full stop. I would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a property in the area.

Steve was excellent, the report he provides is highly detailed and helps you work out the current state of the building you are considering on buying. I have to say, given these difficult times to not be able to view places due to Covid lockdowns, Steve has made that process a hell of a lot easier. The report will cover every aspect of the building you can imagine, detailing areas of concern and photos to show what is going on if there is concern. Through out the whole process Steve has been an excellent communicator, breaking down the information he presents to a non-builder and giving tips on how to tackle things going forward if required. I am really happy with the help and information he is given and highly recommend his services. The pest report was also thorough and gave me confidence I needed in making some big decisions. Thanks guys – great stuff!

I can not thank Steve enough, his after inspection service is amazing. He organised trades to rectify the issues he found making our new home what we wanted, at no charge may I add.
10/10

Steve's house inspection report and ihis recommendations saved me a lot of money and heartache. Because of issues with the house I wanted to buy, after the report I cancelled my offer.
Steve recommended I engage a Structural Engineer to check out elements of the home and it was the best advice. If Steve recommends that you do that, follow his guidance.

Dealing with Steve at East Gippsland Housing Inspections from a professional (Real Estate) level has been a pleasure. Always very attentive to all his clients with great communication skills and very knowledgeable. His off sider, Kyle from Lakeside Pest Solutions additionally provides excellent service for those needing a Pest Inspection. Highly recommend

Steve did a very thorough inspection on a 90 year old house and also took the time to answer any questions on things we weren’t sure about. He even suggested a couple of preventative maintenance things that will save us money in the future. Very happy.:)

Fantastic service and great quality. Very detailed report, i have never seen such a detailed report before for a buildings inspection. Would recommend anytime.

I can highly recommend East Gippsland Housing Inspection. As an inspector myself, I have work closley with Steve and can honestly say his level of building knowledge is second to none. I would highly recommend using him if your thinking of buying a house and need the protection of a quality inspector in Gippsland.

I engaged East Gippsland Housing Inspections (Steve) to carry out a pre purchase inspection on a property I was interested in. Steve was easy to deal with, prompt and thorough, his assessment demonstrated an excellent knowledge of building, construction, engineering and compliance requirements. If you are looking for a condition report that is thorough, honest and value for money I would certainly recommend East Gippsland Housing Inspections.

Honestly, Steve did an amazing job for us. It was our first home purchase, so scary enough on it's own without double guessing our decisions, so having a building inspection was enormously helpful. He's local knowledge, having done an apprenticeship in the area and being a former builder gave us a great deal of confidence in his work.
He has a work ethic second to none (seriously I wish we could find a working builder with similar work ethic.). He did the inspection Friday morning, was in the hospital with his kid over the weekend and we still had the report in our by Monday 11am.
Report was 63 pages with a solid few hundred photos and explanations for everything, plus a fair bit of assistance on the phone

I highly recommend this company. They did such a detailed pre-purchase inspection and a comprehensive report. They are so knowledgeable, professional and trustworthy. Thanks so much for all your assistance in helping us find the right property.

We cannot thank East Gippsland Housing Inspections enough, after getting a report done by ### that was not worth the paper it was written on. The new report was nothing short of amazing over 219 photos compared to 9 and the lack of content in ### reports was disgraceful, I cannot recommend Steve enough if your wanting a detailed report and after inspection support for trades etc.

Had Stephen inspect a property for us. Very knowledgeable and thorough. Was able to explain things we didn't know in an easy to understand manner. Would not hesitate recommending him to do your home inspection.

I cannot thank Steve from East Gippsland Housing Inspections enough for helping me with my new property purchase. I received my report the same day and was extremely informative. Steve spent 40 mins on the phone walking me through the report findings and also gave me phone numbers of local trustworthy tradesman to help fix some of the issues he found. I can highly recommend steve and his service. It was a great customer experiance.
