About Swell Building Inspections

At Swell Building Inspections, we’re passionate about helping Tasmanians make smart, confident property decisions. Based in Hobart, we’ve been proudly serving the community, providing reliable and easy-to-understand building inspections for both residential and commercial properties.

The story of Swell began with a simple goal: to give everyday people the knowledge they need to avoid costly mistakes when buying or building a home. With a background in building, renovations, and drafting—as well as a deep love of learning and clear communication—our founder saw an opportunity to offer something different: thorough, honest inspections explained in plain English.

Our small but dedicated team is driven by a shared mission to protect our clients’ best interests. Led by our founder, Andrew, a qualified builder with years of experience across residential, commercial, and drafting sectors—our small but mighty team is committed to helping everyday homeowners, buyers, and builders make smart, informed decisions. With a background in construction, education, and communication, we bring both technical know-how and a human touch to every inspection.

We take pride in our attention to detail, our use of Australian Standards, and our ability to spot issues others miss. More than anything, we love the feeling of helping someone feel informed, supported, and ready to take the next step.

We believe everyone deserves peace of mind—and we’re here to deliver it, one inspection at a time.
