AS 4349.1 is the Australian Standard for property inspections – a nationally recognised benchmark that sets out exactly what a building inspector must examine, report on, and disclose.
Not every inspector operates to this standard. Some hold basic certifications that allow them to inspect but don’t require the rigour of AS 4349.1 compliance. When you book with Leading Building Inspections, every report is produced to the full AS 4349.1 standard – not a watered-down version.
That means a more thorough inspection, a more detailed report, and better protection for your investment.
Not all building inspectors are insured. And this is one of the most overlooked risks when choosing a building inspector.
Professional indemnity insurance protects you if an inspector misses something significant and you later suffer a financial loss as a result. Public liability insurance covers any damage caused during the inspection itself.
Insurance is expensive, which is why many sole traders and smaller operators don’t carry it. All Leading Building Inspections inspectors carry both – on every job. So you’re protected not just during the inspection, but after.

The Leading Building Inspections team across Melbourne covers the full range of building inspection services.
Don’t risk buying a property with hidden defects or costly pest damage. Whether it’s your dream home or an investment, our comprehensive Building & Pest Inspections give you the confidence to make the right decision.
The most important inspection you'll ever book. Know exactly what you're buying before you sign.
Make sure your new property is handed over in top condition. Our thorough inspection uncovers minor defects, omissions, imperfections, and poor workmanship, inside and out. You’ll receive a clear, detailed report so you can address issues with the builder before moving in.
A Dilapidation (Condition) Report documents the condition of a property before construction begins. It records any existing damage and provides a clear baseline to identify any issues that occur during the construction process. This report protects property owners by serving as an official record, helping to assess whether repairs or compensation are required.
Selling your property? Get ahead of any surprises with a vendor report — and give buyers confidence before they make an offer.
Keep your build on track with expert inspections at every stage. We identify structural issues, workmanship defects, and plan compliance, providing a clear, detailed report so you can resolve problems with your builder before they escalate. Our inspections give you peace of mind and greater control throughout the construction process.
Every report is produced to Australian Standard AS 4349.1, with high-quality photos and video evidence for every defect found -written in plain English, not jargon.
We give you a clear, honest picture of the property’s condition, with practical recommendations for every issue, major or minor.
And you’re never left to figure it out alone – once your report lands, the inspector who was on site calls you personally to talk you through it.
