BPI Brisbane Central - Building & Pest Inspections

BPI was recommended to me by a family member and am I glad they did! Noel and the rest of BPI made the entire building and pest inspection process a breeze! The entire inspection from booking an appointment to receiving the final report was easy and efficient and the BPI staff are so friendly. I wasn’t able to be there on the day of the inspection but Noel turned up exactly at the time promised and did a very thorough job. He also personally called me after the inspection to give me a run down, which helped immensely in regards to understanding the report and putting my mind at ease. I now know exactly what to change as soon as possible and what to look out for in the future. I will have no trouble recommending BPI to others and I can guarantee that if I ever require another inspection, Noel and BPI will be getting another call from me.

Noel and BPI in general were an absolute pleasure to work with. The report was over 40 pages long, included plenty of photographs, covered all accessible areas and I felt it was extremely detailed all the way down to tiny cosmetic things that I wouldn't have expected would be checked. Noel and his detailed report assisted me in getting 2 faults amended at the property before settlement and saved me a lot of money down the track. Noel went out of his way to be flexible and accommodating for me the first visit and then the second visit at my apartment. He deals directly with the agent if preferred and yet still keeps you fully in the loop with communication. The finished report is technical and I have a huge appreciation for the work that went into it, however after it was sent to me - the way that Noel was so happy to discuss it with me after ward in lay person language was invaluable. As a young female buying my first property its always daunting dealing with agents, trades or business people as I don't want to feel as though I get looked at as "dumb" - I didn't feel this way at all with Noel. Noel is highly, highly recommend - don't shop around just comparing price, this is a service from start to end and even after that!

Noel from BPI recently conducted a building and pest inspection for my partner and I for our first home purchase. Noel was extremely professional throughout the whole process and was very clear in email communication what would be included as part of his services then during the actual inspection he was very thorough and took the time to show us each and every notable thing he found, and explained what it meant it terms of the structure and even what it would take to repair or touch up certain things. After the inspection he then provided a full length email report showing everything he had found which included pictures of everything he had noted. Would definitely use Noel’s services again in the future and would highly recommend to everyone.

Tommy Ho

Noel was very professional and experienced. Identified future issues we would not never have spotted through few inspections. Moisture levels were detected in our balcony which we might not have realised years down the track and was covered by building warranty (costs we would have absorbed if we realised it after warranty). Highly recommended. Thanks

Jack Toohey

05:37 13 Apr 19

BPI were prompt, thorough, and professional. Noel explained clearly what he would be inspecting, what could remain undetected, and gave sound advice with well reasoned explanations. Would highly recommend Noel to anyone needing a building inspection and will definitely be a return customer if the situation arises.

Very happy with the service I received from Noel. The inspection was carried out within 2 days of me making the enquiry. Noel phoned the evening after making the inspection and talked me through the key points of his findings and the written report then followed. The report was comprehensive but easy to follow and digest the salient points. 5 star service all round!

Noel is very thorough, meticulous even. I have had him inspect 2 properties, one 5 years ago he saved me from buying, as it had no firewall between the units. And this time I have a thorough list of minor jobs that need doing and because I trust him I know these are minor and there is no great concerns. He also inspected my unit I sold and found a structural issue I had to fix, one that I think was there when I bought the unit!! Thanks Noel, you do a great job.

Georgina Gooderidge

23:40 17 Sep 18

Noel was punctual for the inspection and thoroughly inspected the house. Also he was able to explain issues clearly and succinctly. His report was also detailed in an easy to read format. I have no hesitation in recommending Noel or BPI.

D Broughton

08:53 07 Sep 18

Highly recommended! Noel was very professional and thorough. I couldn’t reccomend him more. He was punctual and took his time to make sure everything was checked and reported on. At the end he took me back through the property to discuss his findings. The report was sent the same day and was very detailed. When I had questions a week after the report he still replied promptly and was incredibly helpful! I’d choose him again for my next property!

Mike Tyler

09:39 03 Aug 18

Noel was on time (actually he started early) and was extremely thorough, efficient, and professional. Spent over 2 hours on the inspection, then walked through the house with me and verbally communicated any points of concern where I could ask questions, etc. The report came through that afternoon as promised and was very detailed with photos. He also offered to be available for follow up questions at any time. Would definitely use Noel next time and recommend him to family and friends. Excellent!

The best and easiest building and pest inspection you will ever had! Noel is professional, friendly and knowledgeable, from booking the service to the inspection he has made it really hassle free for us. Superb customer service with detail reports and advices on the house. High recommend to everyone!

Kylie Gilbert

00:42 23 Jul 18

I highly recommend BPI Building & Pest Inspections. Noel inspected two properties for me now in my search for a unit to buy and I found him to be very thorough and very easy to deal with. The comprehensive report Noel provided was very easy to understand with explanations and photos. Noel also followed up with a phone call to explain the report and he was also more than happy to chat further if I needed further explanation later. Very happy with the service from Noel and Debra and would definitely no hesitate to use them again.

Benjamin Webster

09:41 22 Jul 18

I got Noel to do an inspection of a unit I was purchasing. It was a simple process done online and I was called back to arrange everything. A phone call and some emails was all it took. The inspection has arranged a few days later, I met Noel onsite and he was professional and the report was emailed that afternoon. No fuss no problems. I would definitely use them again.

David Giardina

02:10 13 Jul 18

Noel is very thorough and professional. He clearly explains everything that he finds and makes recommendations based on many years of experience. Five star.

Tim Hedditch

08:34 17 Jun 18

Being my first time buying a property in Brisbane I was careful to choose a qualified and recommended building and pest inspector. Noel was thorough, informative and very professional in his evaluation of the property and his report comprehensive and valuable in providing all the information required. As a result I was able to proceed with absolute confidence. I have no hesitation in recommending Noel and BPI to others.

Cathy Roche

03:31 11 Jun 18

I have dealt with Noel from BPI for over seven years, during this time I have referred him onto a number of our clients for the purchase or sale of their properties. Each time Noel has been reliable, honest and very approachable. Just recently we engaged Noel to do a building inspection for our own property and found him to be very accommodating, thorough and professional as always.

A D

03:14 10 Jun 18

This is the second time I have used Noel for a building and pest inspection prior to purchasing a property, and once again his knowledge and eye has saved me thousands and thousands of dollars. I have also referred a friend of mine to his services, since her building inspector didn't pick up on nearly half the stuff that Noel does. I didn't end up buying the property thanks to what Noel picked up on, and I will be using his services again in the near future, when I do find the place I want to buy. Highly recommend him to all.

Noel was really patient and took the time to answer all my questions. His inspection was incredibly thorough and he obviously has a great deal of experience. I’ve no hesitation at all in recommending him to others!

James M

23:56 29 Apr 18

Noel was very thorough and quick, picking up some moisture damage to the property and having the report back same day. Small things such as lack of paint on the top and bottom of doors were picked up and reported. Noel knows the ins and outs of the industry and this shows in his inspection report.

Rasika Sri

04:17 29 Apr 18

This is our second inspection done by Noel. He did a thorough inspection and he explained things in detailed. Very happy with his inspection!.

Kate Naughton

02:17 25 Apr 18

I would highly recommend Noel from BPI. We engaged him to perform a building and pest inspection prior to placing our home on the market. Noel spent nearly three hours thoroughly examining our large home. I have every confidence that with his attention to detail and years of experience we go to the market with a true knowledge of our beautiful home. I will definitely use his services again in the future.

Noel did a very thoroughly inspection checking even the most remote corner and details of the house. The report was delivered really quickly and was detailed with each item listed accompanied by pictures. He took his time explaining what would have been in the report and giving useful recommendation for other items. Very professional and, at the same time, very easy to talk to. I definitely recommend him.

Annie Turner

02:04 01 Feb 18

Noel was very professional and lovely. He came on time and spent just under 30 mins going around the apartment checking everything. At the end, he gave an overview of thing that needed to be looked into and gave professional help on things to change. He stayed to his word and sent the documentation straight away. Overall a great experience, would highly recommend.

Brian Wyborn

23:07 22 Jan 18

Would highly recommend using BPI for building and pest inspections. Noel was punctual, efficient, thorough and very knowledgeable - exactly what you want when you are about to spend a lot of money on a house! He was also very patient, answered all our questions and made himself available when we had more questions later that week. Great service - thank you BPI!

Manish Dager

23:32 12 Dec 17

Noel is very professional and gave me detailed information. He was always available and answered all the questions. The agent didn’t provide the keys to storage room at the time of inspection so Noel couldn’t inspect it at the time but he rearranged the inspection for the storage room without charging me anything. I would definitely recommend Noel. He is the best.

Nick Yorston

00:35 10 Dec 17

Thank you Noel and Debbie for an excellent customer experience on both occasions you have performed inspections for us. The inspections and reports were very detailed and thorough, as also commented on by the agents, and all the responses to our questions, advice and information explained during the inspections were much appreciated. Great customer service and responsiveness throughout as well. Thanks again!

Julian Kennedy

05:15 27 Nov 17

Exceptional. I made my choice based on prior google reviews and was not disappointed. Our solicitor (for the property) even made a comment as to the great level of detail in the report. On time, easy to deal with, thorough and paid for itself. I suspect Noel uses extensive checklists ensuring that he conducts an in depth analysis.

Brett Lockyer

00:26 31 Oct 17

Noel was thorough, obviously highly experienced and happy to answer questions on the spot. We highly recommend him.

Alex Hahn

Andrew Hardiman

Massive thanks to Noel and his team. Really thorough job and detailed report provided the same day. Noel was also very helpful after the inspection, answering questions we had. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Barry Christensen

01:23 12 Sep 17

Our agent recommended we obtain our own building and pest inspection prior to sale and BPI were recommended to us. Their booking system was very professional and efficient and their communication was excellent. When Noel arrived to do the inspection he was extremely courteous and made us feel we were in good hands. I found his work to be thorough and fair and well documented and explained. I would definitely recommend Noel and BPI to prospective sellers or buyers

Christine Kusher

22:56 14 Aug 17

Noel was extremely thorough and had our very detailed report ready before close of business the same day of the inspection. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Noel.

Paul Maconochie

23:44 08 Aug 17

Noel was on site when he said he would be, did the work that he said he would and delivered the report later that day. Above that he was helpful in answering questions and pleasant to deal with. You cannot ask for more.

Kris Tassell

10:33 31 Jul 17

Kris and I would like to say a massive thank you to Noel and his team! Noel you saved us $5000 off the purchase price of our new home. Honestly look no further if you are after an excellent, professional, attention to detail and value for money service and someone that just cares use Noel at Bpi! You gave us 2 hours as opposed to the generic 1.5 hours just because. We will never use anyone else.

Nilesh Modi

Noel was very friendly and explained me all the things that need to address. After inspection, he followed up with me over the phone to see if I have any further questions. Overall very detailed and excellent service

Rachael Morgan

04:53 22 Jun 17

Meticulous, fast and professional service! Noel was able to fit the inspection in with short notice, and he provided a comprehensive report on the same day as the inspection. He also called after the inspection to go over the major points in the report. I would use his services again.

Really impressed with the service from BPI Central. Noel was extremely thorough, and picked up issues that we would not have been able to detect. He explained the issues clearly as well as suggesting options for rectifying them. The report included photos and was clear and easy to understand. We have dealt with 3 building and pest inspectors in the last 2 months, and Noel really stood out as being especially knowledgeable and thorough. Two thumbs up :)

Sophie Mogg

Noel was able to answer all questions we had, big and small. He really put our minds at ease. A wonderful and seamless experience, highly recommended. Thank you Debbie and Noel!

Noel was prompt and professional highlighting relevant items in our pre-sale building and pest inspection. If you are looking for a extensive, cost effective and fully detailed report, Noel is just the person to deliver it. I would highly recommend BPI and Noel.
