Our take
Dedant is a larger Queensland inspection team offering building, pest and several specialist testing services. Reviews praise individual inspectors and coordinated booking support. Its apartment article explains the difference between a private lot and common property. For Brisbane building inspection practices, specify exactly what is being inspected and whether common areas, pest treatment or testing need separate arrangements.
- Building and pest
- Apartment inspections
- Specialist testing
Who will you deal with?
Brian Cassie and Jan Cassie are identified as managing directors on Dedant's own team page, with Natalie Bristow as general manager and several named inspectors. Reviews most often mention Steve and Chris, reflecting a team service rather than a promise that a director attends every job. Ask which inspector is assigned to your suburb and who will coordinate booking details and discuss any specialist testing.

Exceptional service from Steve! His eye for detail is unmatched. He carried out a very detailed inspection and was extremely sharp at identifying even the smallest issues and faulty areas. If you want a comprehensive and professional inspection, Steve is definitely the person to go
We used dedant to inspect this property when we bought it and they helped us get a bunch of things repaired before we moved in which saved us a huge pile of money. And we just used them for a presale inspection to now sell our home. They have been professional, very helpful. Fast to communicate and really gone above and beyond to be really helpful in dealing with on both occasions and I will definitely be using them…
I went with Dedant this year in March. Highly recommend Steve who did such a thorough job and guided my wife and I. We are new into the house market so there were many things we didn’t know and Steve supported us through it all. Fantastic admin team who are easy to talk through and organize
