What We Found Wednesday 🔍

Some measurements are a little harder to overlook than others.

During a recent brickwork inspection, our team identified significant inconsistencies in the mortar joints, with measurements exceeding acceptable construction tolerances.

While uneven brickwork might initially appear to be a cosmetic concern, these tolerances exist for a reason. Consistent workmanship is important for the quality, finish and overall performance of a home.

It's a great example of why independent stage inspections matter. Identifying issues while construction is underway gives builders and homeowners the opportunity to address concerns before the project progresses further.

At House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia, attention to detail is part of the job, and sometimes the smallest measurements reveal the biggest discrepancies.

After more than 25 years in the building industry, Niall knew he had plenty of experience to offer. He was simply ready to put it to work in a different way.

As a licensed builder and carpenter, making the move off the tools didn't mean leaving the industry behind. Today, Niall runs his own House Inspect Australia franchise across Holdfast Bay and Marion, putting his practical knowledge to work while enjoying the independence of being his own boss.

With the training, guidance and ongoing support of Litsa, Barney and the wider team, Niall has been able to build on his experience and take the next step in his career.

For experienced builders and tradespeople considering a change, Niall's story is a great example of where your industry knowledge could take you.

You’ll have the opportunity to put your industry knowledge to work in a different way, build a business of your own and have the support, systems and experience of an established team behind you.

So, if tomorrow’s return to site is already on your mind, maybe it’s worth thinking about where your experience could take you next.

No trending audio needed. A pre-purchase inspection has a soundtrack of its own.

Tapping, testing, opening, closing, checking and inspecting. It’s all part of getting a proper understanding of a property before you commit to buying it.

It might not be the glamorous part of buying a home, but finding out what you’re actually buying is pretty important.

So, turn the sound up. This is what doing your due diligence sounds like 🔍

An evening at Parliament celebrating some of the incredible women helping shape South Australia’s construction industry.

On Tuesday evening, Litsa joined the 2026 Master Builders SA HiViZ Women in Construction Award winners and finalists at Old Parliament House for a special event hosted by Minister for Women, The Hon Katrine Hildyard MP.

As a member of the HiViZ committee, Litsa has been fortunate to play a part in recognising and supporting women across the industry, making it particularly special to come together and celebrate this year’s outstanding group.

The evening also included a tour of the House of Assembly and a discussion about South Australia’s history of women’s suffrage, a fitting backdrop for an event recognising the achievements of women continuing to make their mark today.

Congratulations again to all of this year’s winners and finalists. It was a fantastic evening celebrating your achievements and the contribution you continue to make to our industry.

What We Found Wednesday 🔍

After an unseasonably wet winter in Adelaide, this is something our inspectors are keeping a particularly close eye on.

During a recent stage inspection, our team identified mould developing on timber that had been exposed to the elements during construction.

While framing will inevitably encounter some weather, prolonged exposure to wet conditions can create an environment where mould can develop. In this case, the mould will need to be appropriately treated before the build progresses.

From a pest perspective, moisture matters too. Damp conditions and moisture-affected timber can create a more conducive environment for timber pests, including termites, making good moisture management an important part of long-term property protection.

It’s exactly why identifying these issues during construction matters, before they’re concealed by the next stage of the build.

Happy Father’s Day to the dads and father figures who teach us, support us, make us laugh and are always there when we need them.

Today we celebrate dads, grandfathers, stepdads, carers, mentors and all the people who step into a fatherly role in someone’s life. Across House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia, we’re lucky to have many of them within our team, among our clients and throughout the communities we work in every day.

We appreciate everything they do for us, even if loving them means enduring a lifetime supply of dad jokes.

Happy Father’s Day from the House and Pest team.
