A1 Building and Pest Consultancy is a Queensland-based inspection company created by James Smith. With qualifications as a civil engineer, James has over 15 years of knowledge and experience in anything related to residential building construction. For the past 10 years, James started A1 Building and Pest Consultancy to provide his services of impartial and independent house inspections to home-buyers in Queensland, so they could make an informed decision about a potential property.  

With a team made up of civil or architectural engineers, the team's inspectors know where to look for potential problems with the property and can identify any damages or pests that may be present. The team at A1 Building and Pest Consultancy conduct a variety of inspections, including but not limited to, wood-pest inspections, building inspections, and pool inspections.  

Pest inspections are able trace any wood pests and/or timber damage in a property. Wood pests include termites, wood rot, wood borers, and signs of high moisture that may attract pests in the future and cause issues later.  

Building inspections help the team at A1 Building and Pest Consultancy find both major and minor issues with the structure of a pre-existing building. Qualified inspectors are also able to check the safety of a newly constructed building, to ensure it is safe and fully completed before handover, so you can get the builders to fix any errors before taking ownership.  

Pool inspections are necessary unless the seller has provided you with a pool safety certificate. It is important to get your pool inspected by a qualified inspector as it is required by law for pool-owners in Queensland and can be end up becoming expensive if it has any issues that need to be fixed.  

The inspectors at A1 Building and Pest Consultancy use the latest technology to thoroughly inspect your home for any defects or signs of pests. Such equipment includes thermal imaging cameras, drones (to inspect roofs), moisture meters, timber tapping devices, and the latest Termatrac system (to detect any potential pests).
