Why Choose Us?

A building inspection is a pivotal part of property ownership and investment. Our skilled and experienced team in  Richmond ensures that properties meet local and national building codes, safety norms, and prescribed regulations.

137B Reports for Richmond

If you are an owner-builder planning to sell a property within 6.5 years of completion, you’ll need a 137B report, also known as the owner-builder defect report. This assessment identifies any defects in the building work and is essential for the sales process. 

At Solid Start Property Inspections, we provide 137B reports in Richmond, guaranteeing a thorough and accurate account of your property, and aiding your potential sale.

Dilapidation Surveys 

We highly encourage you to consider conducting a dilapidation survey before starting any major construction or renovation work. 

This survey documents the property’s current condition, providing a benchmark for any potential claims of damage as a result of construction work in the vicinity. 

Our team in Richmond delivers comprehensive dilapidation surveys, protecting you from unsubstantiated claims.

Stage Inspections Richmond Builders Can Trust

Undertaking a new construction project can be exciting but stressful. 

One way to ensure your project is on track is by conducting stage inspections, which occur at various stages of the building process. This report ensures quality and adherence to standards at each phase. 

With our stage inspection services in Richmond, you can have confidence that your building project is in good hands from start to finish.

I highly recommend Ian from Solid Start Property Inspections. We were advised that we needed a 137B inspection report, so I contacted Ian and he was incredibly helpful from the beginning. He arranged to attend our property the very next morning, which was fantastic given the short timeframe we were working with.
Ian was thorough, professional and very pleasant to deal with. The inspection was completed efficiently, and we had the completed report within just two hours. His communication, attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our needs made the whole process easy and stress-free.
Thank you, Ian, for your excellent service. I would have no hesitation in recommending Solid Start Property Inspections to anyone needing a professional and reliable property inspection.

Ian Stewart provided an incredibly efficient and effective service for our owner builder inspection report and informed us about  insurance options.  All those positive reviews are spot-on - as was Claude AI which recommended Ian as its number one choice for an inspection service in Melbourne.

Unbelievable service today from Ian Stewart at Solid Start Property. Spoke to Ian last Wednesday as we weren’t sure if a 137b was required. Appointment organised for today at 12pm. Ian was on time and so efficient. He made the whole process simple and straightforward. He really knows his audience and makes everything easy to understand and on top of that he is genuinely a really nice guy and he very fairly priced. I had imagined wrongly the report may take possible weeks to complete, but how wrong I was. Have received the report just now. Incredible….,4 hours turnaround!! Thank you Ian for your expertise and timely report. I can’t thank you enough and will recommend you to friends and family every-time.

If I could give Ian 1000 stars I would! He was a life saver! I found out I needed a s137b owner builder report 36 hours before an auction. Ian managed to squeeze my house inspection in between his jobs! He understood the urgency and help do the inspection and provide a report within 8 hours!! Ian also was about to recommend a company that could assist in issuing the insurance on-time as well!

This is how it is done.

Good and quick communication.
Fast turnaround and pleasant to deal with.
All one can ask for.

I am happy to recommend Ian for anyone looking to get an inspection done.

My 137b was from me reaching out, sorted and report in hand, in 3 days. Could perhaps have been quicker but I was the one that was slow at getting back to Ian's email.

Thanks Ian
