Read What Most people Say About Us

We contacted Hunter Valley Pest and Building Inspections for a dilapidation inspection before a new development started next door to our property in Maitland. From the moment Craig answered the phone, we knew we were in good hands. He clearly explained what the inspection would cover and why it was so important to have proper documentation before heavy machinery started work.

On the inspection day, Craig arrived right on time, was polite, and extremely thorough. He photographed every retaining wall, path and boundary fence, noting even minor cracks we hadn’t noticed. The report was delivered the same day, clearly formatted and filled with photographic evidence.

Thanks to Craig’s professionalism, we have total peace of mind knowing our property’s condition is documented should any issues arise. If you live in the Hunter Valley or Maitland region and need a dilapidation report, I couldn’t recommend this company more highly.

Our Aberglasslyn home had a persistent musty smell. The mould inspector found hidden growth behind wardrobes and explained how the area’s microclimate contributes. The remediation plan worked wonders, and we’ve since recommended this service to neighbours.

We hired Hunter Valley Pest and Building Inspections for a commercial pest and building inspection on a warehouse in Maitland. Brad was fantastic to deal with — professional, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable.

The report uncovered major termite damage and structural issues that would have cost us thousands to repair. Because of HV detailed findings, we were able to renegotiate the purchase price.

The communication, report quality, and turnaround time were all exceptional. If you’re buying commercial property in the Hunter Valley, you’d be crazy to use anyone else. Hamish.C

I used Hunter Valley Pest and Building Inspections for a building inspection on an investment property in Cessnock, and the experience was seamless from start to finish. Craig was professional, thorough, and communicated clearly throughout the process.

The report was delivered the same day and was incredibly detailed. It included photos, notes, and clear explanations that helped me prioritise repairs before leasing the property. His honesty and attention to detail stood out immediately.
