What Our Clients Say

Real feedback from homeowners across Northwestern Sydney.

"We used IPI Norwest for our new build progress inspections and couldn't be happier. They caught several issues our builder had missed — including a waterproofing problem that would have been a nightmare to fix after tiling. The reports were detailed, clear, and gave us real leverage with our builder. Absolutely worth every cent."

Sarah & Michael T.

"Hired IPI Norwest for a pre-purchase inspection on a property in Baulkham Hills. The report was incredibly thorough — they found structural issues the selling agent hadn't disclosed. Saved me from making a very expensive mistake. Professional, knowledgeable, and easy to deal with. Highly recommend."

James R.

Castle Hill, NSW

"We engaged IPI Norwest for our PCI inspection before taking possession of our new home. They identified 23 defects that needed to be rectified before handover. The builder fixed everything and IPI Norwest came back to verify. Having that independent expert in our corner gave us so much peace of mind."
