Why Choose Aspire Building & Pest Inspections?
When purchasing a property, choosing an experienced and knowledgeable building inspector can make a significant difference.
Aspire Building & Pest Inspections is owned and operated by James May, a licensed builder with over 35 years of building industry experience, including 20 years specialising in remedial building work.
Having spent two decades identifying, investigating and rectifying building defects, James has extensive practical knowledge of how buildings are constructed, why defects occur and the potential implications of necessary repairs.
Experience That Makes a Difference
With more than 6,000 building and pest inspections completed since establishing Aspire in 2012, James brings extensive hands-on knowledge to every property inspection.
Unlike an inspector with only a reporting background, James’s experience in building construction and remedial work provides valuable insight into structural concerns, moisture problems, construction defects and general building deterioration.
Independent, Thorough Inspections
Every inspection is personally conducted by James, providing customers with a consistent and independent assessment of the property’s condition.
Our priority is to provide accurate, practical information that helps purchasers understand the property they are considering.
Specialised equipment, including moisture meters and thermal imaging, is used where considered appropriate to assist with identifying potential areas of concern.
Clear, Same-Day Reports
We understand that purchasing a property can be stressful, particularly when decisions need to be made within limited timeframes.
Our reports are detailed, supported by photographs and written in straightforward language, helping customers distinguish between significant concerns and general maintenance issues.
Reports are provided on the same day as the inspection, and James is available to discuss the findings and answer questions.
