About HFT Building & Pest Inspections

Independent inspectors — no commissions, no conflicts. We work to AS 4349.1 and AS 4349.3, spend the time under the house and through the roof, and report back in plain English within 24 hours.

Our Story

HFT Building & Pest Inspections is a newly established business founded with a clear mission: to provide Brisbane property buyers and owners with honest, thorough, and reliable inspection services.

While we’re new to the market, our team brings extensive industry experience. Our inspectors have worked for years in building inspection, construction, and pest control, and have now come together to create a customer-focused inspection service that Brisbane can trust.

We understand that buying or selling a property is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll make. That’s why we’re committed to providing detailed, accurate inspections that uncover potential issues before they become costly problems.

Based right here in Brisbane, we have an in-depth understanding of local building standards, common structural issues in Queensland properties, and the unique pest challenges our subtropical climate presents. We’re excited to serve our local community and build lasting relationships based on quality, integrity, and professionalism.
