Kim Steele
Inspector
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.
What Morley customers say
A professional and knowledgeable team, with excellent communication. Nick was great in scheduling the inspection and Kim the building inspector was fantastic, answering all of my questions. The inspection was thorough and the report was delivered quickly with far more detail than I had expected. I would definitely recommend their services.
Michael
Professional, friendly, and thorough — I’m very happy with the inspection and report. Kim did an outstanding job during my PCI. He was extremely detailed, professional, and easy to deal with throughout the process. Morgan was also great to work with — her customer service was excellent, and she made everything smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Highly recommend SURE Building Inspections to anyone looking for reliable and friendly service.

Peter
As someone buying my first home, I wasn’t too sure what to expect - but Kim made the whole process so much easier. He took the time to explain the report in detail over a couple of calls, walked me through my rights as a buyer, and shared real experiences with similar older cottages so I knew what I was getting into. Genuinely felt like he had my best interests at heart and helped me feel way more confident in my decision. Legend!!
Jeremiah

Frank
Really impressed. Morgan was very responsive with all my emails, and Kim's detailed report allowed us to pick up minor and major defects with our builder. We met Kim on site, and was able to have a quick chat about the build; he was really reassuring. Kim followed up with a call to ensure we didn't have any questions/queries regarding the report and was happy to discuss anything on there. Would highly recommend. Thank you team SURE Building :)

Morgan at SURE Building Inspections was amazing, she helped us book in our building inspection super quick and was extremely helpful and informative throughout the whole process. Kim the building inspector at SURE was incredibly detailed and helped us pick up on minor and major defects that we weren’t even aware of with great communication and recommendations. Highly recommend SURE for your Building Inspections, they are timely, helpful and very professional.

I dealt with Sure Building Inspections to purchase my commercial property in Perth. I found Morgan to be very helpful and walked me through the administration process. They arranged the inspection by contacting the real estate agent directly, taking something off my busy plate. The inspection was conducted by Kim. The report was comprehensive. I was given an opportunity to review the report. I called Kim to clarify a few things, and he answered all my questions with his wealth of knowledge and experience. I'm quite satisfied with the services I was provided.
Masoud
SURE was exceptional for my recent building and pest inspection. Morgan was prompt to communicate and efficiently organized the inspection. I received a thorough 90-page report, and Kim, the inspector, patiently explained everything, showing great customer service too. Highly recommend SURE for their professionalism, kindness, and efficiency. Thanks guys!
Linda
Buying a house is quite stressful but Sure Building & Pest did their best to help make, at least this step in the process, easier. We got a comprehensive building inspection done and Kim did an excellent job. In addition not needing to book a seperate pest inspection and building inspection made arranging the whole thing much smoother. The report was very thorough and contained plenty of pictures to help highlight any issues with the property. Kim even made contact the following day to confirm that we understood everything in the report and answered any and all questions we had. Kathryn and Katie were also brilliant and helped fit in our appointment when other places were unable to book us in until after the inspection results would have been due. Couldn't be more helpful.
Natasha
I can strongly recommend Richard and Kim from Sure Building and Pest. After the stress of finding termite damage in my roof I contacted Sure Building & Pest. They cam around promptly , did a thorough inspection and provided an affordable solution. Will definitely be using these guys again.

FAQs — Commercial Property Inspection in the Morley region
Is this inspection suitable for all commercial property types?
Yes, the inspection covers commercial offices, retail premises, small industrial units, and light commercial buildings. For large industrial or specialised properties, contact us to discuss the scope.
How is the price calculated for commercial inspections?
Commercial inspections are priced by square metre of floor area rather than by bedroom count. Tiers are in 100 sqm increments up to 500 sqm. Above 500 sqm, a per-sqm rate applies.
Does this include a pest inspection?
The structural inspection does not include timber pest inspection. The Combined Commercial Inspection (structural + pest) is available at a combined price.
How long does the inspection take, and when is the report ready?
It varies with floor area and building complexity — smaller properties take around 1–1.5 hours, while large commercial sites can take more than a full day. Standard commercial reports are issued the same day; larger sites need extra time to compile.
Is asbestos covered?
Asbestos is excluded under AS 4349.0 because it requires laboratory testing. Your inspector may flag obvious cement-fibrous-sheeting risk areas, but formal identification requires a Licensed Asbestos Surveyor.
Will structural leaks or water ingress be checked?
Yes — the inspector reports indications of roof and plumbing leaks and water ingress, which can conceal structural damage. Some leaks can only be confirmed with further, more invasive investigation.
Can I attend the inspection?
Yes, you and your solicitor or advisor are welcome to attend.
Do you inspect strata commercial tenancies?
Yes, strata commercial tenancies are covered under the same structural scope as any other commercial property. For larger or more specialised properties, contact us to discuss the scope.
Is the pool or site landscaping covered?
No, a structural inspection covers the building's structural elements only. Pool structure, equipment and site landscaping fall outside this scope; the Comprehensive Commercial Inspection covers the broader non-structural condition of the site.
Can a structural inspection be combined with timber pest?
Yes, the Combined Commercial Inspection covers both the structural and timber pest scopes in one visit, at a combined price, instead of booking the two separately.
How much does a pest inspection cost?
Pricing depends on the property size, type and access. A large freestanding home in Morley costs more than a compact unit. We give custom quotes based on the actual property.
How quickly do I get the report?
Usually the same day, subject to access and availability. Your digital report is emailed after the inspection is complete.
Do I need to attend?
No. After the inspection, your Morley inspector will call you to discuss the findings.
What can't be inspected due to access?
We only check accessible areas. We can't inspect inside wall cavities, behind permanent fixtures, under heavy furniture or beneath fixed floor coverings. Your report will note any restricted areas.
Do you service my area?
We cover Morley and the wider Perth metropolitan area.
