About Brisbane

Brisbane is the capital of Queensland, Australia, and the third-most populous city in the country. Situated on the Brisbane River, it is known for its vibrant culture, diverse population, and stunning natural surroundings. With its excellent transportation network, including Brisbane Airport and the Port of Brisbane, the city is well-connected locally and internationally. Brisbane’s attractions range from the South Bank Parklands to the Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art, making it a popular tourist destination.

Typical Brisbane homes, often referred to as Queenslander residences, are distinguished by their timber frameworks, expansive verandahs, corrugated iron roofs with gables, and lofty ceilings. These homes are typically raised on wooden stilts, known locally as ‘stumps’, creating a space beneath the structures that facilitates ventilation. Thanks to the abundance and cost-effectiveness of timber in the southeast region of Queensland, the majority of homes have been built using this material instead of brick or stone, up until recent times.

Early Queensland legislation established a minimum plot size for residential properties, resulting in a scarcity of terrace houses in Brisbane. Instead, higher-density housing traditionally took the form of compact, Queenslander-style dwellings. Although smaller – often about a quarter of the size – these miniature Queenslanders are a common sight in Brisbane’s inner-city suburbs, echoing the grandeur of their larger counterparts in their design elements.

Thanks goodness we engaged Owner Inspections as our independent inspector for our build. The defects identified in our build have been concerning. Who knows what the finished product would have been like without these inspections.

I recently used Owner Inspections and was thoroughly impressed. The team arrived on time, were professional and efficient, and identified several issues that I wouldn't have noticed myself. Their report was detailed and easy to understand, and I feel much more confident in the condition of my property thanks to their work. Highly recommend!

Owner Inspections has done 5 inspections so far and it has been very thorough so far. Reports are given pretty much within an hour from the inspection. They have been very flexible with appointments as our SS then, kept changing the dates and times at a very short notice and Des in the office has been very helpful with short notices. Burak was the inspector who did most of our inspections and got things sorted out with the SS pretty quickly. Waiting for the PCI inspection and hopefully it turns out well. Thanks Des and Burak for your assistance throughout. 😊

High attention to detail. Our framing stage inspection was performed by Burak who provided detailed report and seems knowledgeable. The submitted report mentioned everything from a minor to a major defect which could impact the structure. Keep up the good work.
