Common questions

What others asks before signing up?

How much does a building inspection cost in Australia?
A standard pre-purchase building inspection typically costs $400–$800 for a house, depending on property size, age and location. Combined building and pest inspections are usually $100 less than booking separately. Commercial properties and urgent same-day inspections cost more.
How accurate is this building inspection quote calculator?
This calculator provides an estimate based on typical Australian inspection fees. Your building inspector will confirm the final scope and fee in a written proposal after discussing your specific property and requirements.
Does the estimate include GST?
Yes, all estimates from this calculator include 10% GST automatically. Building inspectors in Australia are required to be GST-registered and include GST in their pricing.
Can I add this calculator to my WordPress or Squarespace site?
Yes. You can embed the calculator on any website — WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify — with a single line of code. It matches your branding and works on mobile.
What do I get when a buyer fills out the calculator?
You receive an instant notification with the buyer's contact details, property information, inspection requirements and estimated value. Leads are scored by quality so you can prioritise callbacks.
I don't have a website — can I still use this?
Yes. Every calculator gets its own SEO-optimised landing page on Leadkit that ranks in Google. Share the link directly with buyers or use it as your online presence.
Do I need to be licensed to use this calculator?
The calculator is a lead-capture tool — your state licensing (NSW Fair Trading, VIC Building Practitioners Board, QBCC etc.) is displayed on your own branding within the estimates you send.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works

How this building inspection estimate is calculated

This calculator produces an estimate based on typical Australian building inspection fees. It is not a binding quote — your inspector will confirm the final fee after reviewing your requirements.

GST handling: All building inspection fees in Australia include 10% GST. Inspectors must be GST-registered.

  1. Base fee by property size

    The calculator starts with a base inspection fee determined by the property's floor area, reflecting the time and detail required for larger properties.

    base_fee = property_size_rate

  2. Property type and age adjustment

    Fees are adjusted for property type (apartments require less external inspection, commercial properties require more) and age (older buildings need closer structural assessment).

    inspection_fee = base_fee × type_factor × age_factor

  3. Additional services

    Combined building and pest inspections are discounted versus booking separately. Strata reports add a fixed fee for reviewing body corporate records.

    addons = pest_fee + strata_fee

  4. Urgency and GST

    Priority and same-day inspections attract a surcharge. A minimum job fee applies. GST (10%) is added to all fees as inspectors are GST-registered.

    total = (subtotal + urgency + addons) × 1.1
