Our Inspectors

Kim is an experienced building inspector with a hands-on foundation in carpentry, joinery and construction, so he reads how a building was put together and how it performs over time, not just what shows on the surface. His career spans the restoration of heritage-listed buildings and centuries-old timber structures through to major public and private infrastructure and large-scale wetland projects, giving him deep knowledge of both traditional building techniques and modern construction. He takes pride in clear, practical advice grounded in real-world experience.

With more than 40 years in construction across the UK, Queensland and Western Australia, Gary brings practical depth few inspectors can match. He started as a carpenter and progressed to foreman and site supervisor on residential, commercial and infrastructure projects - including work associated with Heathrow Airport and multiple UK shopping centres - and went on to own building maintenance companies servicing housing associations in the UK and local-authority contracts in Queensland. Since moving to WA in 2021 he has focused on clear, honest inspections that pinpoint not just defects but their causes and what they mean for the owner.

Rod is the owner and lead inspector for SURE Building Inspections across four NSW zones - Parramatta, Norwest, Penrith and Macarthur. With more than 20 years in the construction industry, he has managed and overseen projects ranging from residential developments to major commercial and infrastructure works. He holds a Graduate Diploma in Building Surveying and a Diploma in Building and Construction, backed by deep experience in construction management, building compliance and defect identification. Rod knows that buying, building or investing in property is one of the biggest financial decisions most people make, so he is committed to thorough inspections, clear reporting and honest advice that helps clients decide with confidence.

Thamindu is a civil and structural engineer who began on high-rise building projects, building deep knowledge of reinforcement, formwork and concrete construction. He holds a Bachelor's in Civil, Building and Structural Engineering and a Master of Civil Engineering from Edith Cowan University (2025), and spent seven years with one of Sri Lanka's leading waterproofing and structural-repair firms - rising to Project Engineer across high-rise developments, heritage buildings, dams and one of the country's largest roof-mounted solar projects. A member of Engineers Australia, he brings strong structural-assessment, remedial-engineering and waterproofing expertise to every inspection.
