We had David and Shelley provide us with a 5 stage inspection process throughout our Build and it has given us us great piece of mind and helped us get plenty of evidence for any issues that could arise now and in the future they are a great team and provide an excellent service. Thank you handover hero!

Handover Hero provides such great service! I used Handover Hero for post handover inspection. David was thorough with his inspection of the house and gave me a lot of great general advice in maintaining the house as well. I recommend using Handover Hero for any inspection of the construction of a new home. 👍

Handover Hero team are great, they were recommended to us by a long chain of being recommended by others and I am keen to keep that doing. Dave was super profession and helpful, answered all our questions and super informative for what to keep an eye out for and stay on top of maintenance. Also a super quick turn around of the report, thanks heaps guys!

We are so thankful we appointed Handover Hero for inspections throughout our build process. We love the detailed reports with lots of photos, David's phone calls to explain it all, and Shelley's excellent communication with both the builder and ourselves to organise appointments. We have so much more peace of mind knowing we have some insight as to how the build is going, independent of the builder's updates.

We had David inspect our upcoming new home via a Practical Completion Inspection today. The service David provided was absolutely amazing. He was clear, concise and kind. The purpose of this role is often times the delivery of tough news to builders. Having worked in this field for many years, he explained this in alignment with regulation in a way that acknowledged the tough times of all parties undergoing the building process. I would absolutely recommend this business and will definitely be using him to full scope in any future works. Well done👏👏

Thankyou David and Shelley for your assistance with our difficult house build. David with your calm and professional attitude at every inspection you made it easier to be onsite to do inspections even with our arrogant builder around. I would recommended Firths services to anybody who is building a house.

Great handover inspection! Extremely thorough and professional and picked up a number of structural items that another inspector didn't pick up. Very impressed.

I can recommend David and Shelley with no hesitation. I would definitely recommend getting an independent inspection done upon handover of a new property, and if I ever need to do it again David from Firth Construction would be my first choice. He was extremely professional, very prompt to respond, always on time and communicated very well. The report was sent promptly on the same day as the inspection. Also very thorough in his inspection. Five stars all the way!

Look no further for a thorough building report. David and Shelley are an excellent team. I engaged Firth Constructions at a time we were navigating our way through a new build that appeared to have some defects. In a confusing time, David and Shelley were fantastic. They worked in with our tight time frame, provided an extremely detailed report overnight and made themselves available to step through and discuss the findings. I am very impressed with this company and will be recommending them to anybody requiring such services. 100% Genuine Business!

David got a very sharp eye that any minor defects can be detected. It is good you have every big and small "defects" in your report so you can decide which one is important to you.

This is the second time that I have used Firth Co Construction to inspect one of my builds. As a teacher I have little knowledge of what to look for during the building stage. David inspected each stage of my build and kept me well informed along the way. The reports were very detailed, clear and sent to me the same day the inspection was done. He was very thorough and picked up things along the way which I would have had no idea to look for. David was very personable and very responsive to any questions I had. I highly recommend Firth Co Construction and have happily had many friends use their services too. I would never build without an independent inspector and David is very knowledgeable and an excellent choice. Thanks for your services.

Dave made our handover process so smooth and easy, which was much appreciated after a long stressful building process! He spent a lot of time answering questions, explained everything really clearly, and also was very thorough with our inspection and communicating defects to our builders. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend Firth Co!

This company holds builders accountable with detailed inspection and reporting. Being locked down in another State was difficult, but David gave me the confidence that he was on the ball and that I could relax and trust him and his team. I would happily use David & his team at Firth Co for any future projects. Mark

Being our first home build I wanted to make sure we got the best guy to come and inspect it for us and give us the reassurance that the house was perfect before handover.David was everything we had hoped for, he was knowledgeable, professional and meticulous through the entire inspection process.The report he provided was very comprehensive and detailed a lot of fixes required before the final handover inspection.I am very thankful to David because without his expertise we would have never discovered those defects to our beautiful home. All listed defects have since been rectified by the builder.I would happily recommend David to anyone looking for an expert in new home building inspections.

David Firth and his services were the highlight of our whole new build experience. We asked David to conduct our pre-purchase inspection and after being wowed by his professionalism and knowledge, had him out again to conduct a second inspection before handover.He was on time, professional but very personable and knew exactly how to handle the builder; playing the perfect middle man position while still making us feel secure that we had someone in our corner.He communicated everything clearly and ensured that all parties understood the processes and the findings and delivered the handover report in a very timely manner in an easy to understand format.I truly cannot recommend David enough, he was an absolute superstar and my only regret is that we didn't get him out to do stage inspections during the construction. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We cannot speak highly enough of Firth Co Construction. Our experience with David was exceptional. For someone who was very nervous about the Practical Completion Inspection for our new build, David put me at ease straight away and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. He was very patient, thorough and extremely professional. We would definitely recommend David at Firth Co Construction.

We had Firth Co help with our new house inspection couple weeks ago, it went very well, David patiently went through the whole house with me, explain all defects and help me understand about QLD building standard.Plus his report was pretty clear and detail, it is a strong support when we try to talk to our builder. real reliable, gotta give my man some credit.

Just had a new house built and had David from Firth Co as our third party inspector. What a great job, he went through the place with a fine tooth comb pointing out any and every possible defect. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was of the highest standard for us. If you need Firth Co's services, I fully and hole heartedly recommend them for you building or inspection needs.

David is very punctual and professional and is very knowledgeable. I felt at ease and comfortable and did not have to worry about a thing while David performed the inspection. After the inspection David report was done professionally and was easy to read and sent before mid day on the same day. I recommend David Firth and have recommended to friends and family a job well done

David completed multiple inspections for us during our Owner build. Being we are Owner builders it was extremely helpful to have David extensively check each stage for us to ensure everything was being built to code and completed the way it should be. He was very thorough in his inspections and explains everything in layman's terms. He is extremely knowledgeable and I cannot recommend David highly enough. Thank you David for all your help.
