Re: Independant Builders Inspectors Recommendations in Victo 14Jul 15, 2020 11:16 pm SaveH2O I have a personal revulsion towards Jims anything because of the way their plumbing franchises operate (do a keyword search on the Whirlpool Home sub forum for examples). There was however a Jim's building consultant who use to help Homeone members with their queries and he came over as being credible. Can't remember what State he was in though. Invest in a few hours to do a forum keyword search using terms like stage inspection, problems, report, recommend etc. Just make sure that you read Victorian posts. Also be aware that building consultants who do stage inspections are often erroneously called building inspectors by those outside the industry. A building inspectors works with the building surveyor (who the home owner appoints in Victoria) and often does most of the building surveyor's work but their role is limited to the construction's structural integrity. Thank you everyone for your support. Would you recommend Debrecca or David Seville building inspector?

Re: Independant Builders Inspectors Recommendations in Victo 16Jul 16, 2020 7:39 am IMO Darbecca pricing appears very expensive for the standard inspection services they deliver. I suggest requesting a few comparative quotes and sample reports from alternative consultants for comparisons. Satisfy yourself that their premium pricing is worth it. Be aware that Darbecca will not engage with the builder on your behalf regarding any identified defects. They will provide you with theIr written report and you will need to discuss this with the builder yourself.
Some of the Darbecca marketing messaging appear to be based on fuelling confrontation with builders, instilling fear of these builders amongst naive new homebuyers, and denigrating competing consultants. An approach which I feel is misleading and inappropriate.

An approach which I feel is misleading and inappropriate. Exactly. I would then probably go over with other inspectors who can offer cheap reinspection as my main concern is not only to find defects but make sure they are addressed as well Re: Independant Builders Inspectors Recommendations in Victo 18Jul 16, 2020 12:59 pm If you accompany the inspector on his visit and ask questions you could learn about any defects he identified and how they are rectified, then you can make the follow up inspections yourself, or ask the SS to take some photos that confirm.
