What We Do

Inspections for every stage of your property journey

Buying, building or maintaining — choose the inspection that fits where you're at. Every report is written in plain English.

Basic Pre-Purchase Structural

A focused assessment of the property's foundations, walls and roof — ideal if you just need to know the structure is sound.

Learn more

Comprehensive Pre-Purchase

Structure, plus electrical, plumbing, maintenance and compliance — the full picture before you sign.

Learn more

Practical Completion Inspection

Building a new home? We check it against the contract and standards before handover, so defects are caught early.

Learn more

Dilapidation Report

Document a property's existing condition before nearby construction or excavation begins — protecting you if damage occurs.

Learn more

Specific Item Inspection

Got a particular concern — a crack, a leak, a defect? A targeted inspection of just that item, with a clear written opinion.

Not sure which one you need?

Tell us about the property and what's prompting the inspection — we'll recommend the right level for you, no pressure.

Why Akaki

Thorough inspections, explained like a conversation

We don't just hand you a checklist. We walk you through what we found, why it matters, and — just as importantly — what's genuinely fine and doesn't need to worry you.

  • A thorough, methodical approach

    We work through every property the same careful way, every time — so nothing gets missed and nothing gets exaggerated.

  • We explain the "why", not just the "what"

    Every defect comes with context — is it serious, is it normal wear for the age of the property, and what would we do about it. No jargon, no scare tactics.

  • Building runs in the family

    Our connection to the industry goes back a generation — a childhood spent around building sites that grew into a genuine fascination with how homes are put together.

  • 14+ years, 2,000+ inspections

    Across houses, units and new builds all over Perth — experience that means we know what's genuinely worth flagging.

Meet the Team

Our Inspectors

A father-and-son team, each bringing their own background to every inspection.

MT
Mechanical Engineer & Inspector

Marios Theodorou

Marios grew up around building sites — his own father was a builder — and that early exposure grew into a genuine fascination with how buildings are put together and how they perform over time. He brings a mechanical engineer's methodical approach to every inspection, and genuinely enjoys walking clients through what he finds — not just flagging defects, but explaining clearly why something is a concern, and just as often, why it isn't.

DT
Inspector

Dimitris Theodorou

Dimitris works alongside Marios as the second Akaki inspector, carrying the same hands-on, straight-talking approach to every job. Follow along on Instagram @akaki.inspections for ongoing videos explaining what we find out on site.

We don't just tell you what's wrong. We tell you why it matters — and just as often, why it doesn't.
