An evening at Parliament celebrating some of the incredible women helping shape South Australia’s construction industry.

On Tuesday evening, Litsa joined the 2026 Master Builders Association SA HiViZ Women in Construction Award winners and finalists at Old Parliament House for a special event hosted by Minister for Women, The Hon Katrine Hildyard MP.

As a member of the HiViZ committee, Litsa has been fortunate to play a part in recognising and supporting women across the industry, making it particularly special to come together and celebrate this year’s outstanding group.

The evening also included a tour of the House of Assembly and a discussion about South Australia’s history of women’s suffrage, a fitting backdrop for an event recognising the achievements of women continuing to make their mark today.

Congratulations again to all of this year’s winners and finalists. It was a fantastic evening celebrating your achievements and the contribution you continue to make to our industry.

When you’re walking through a property, it’s natural to focus on the things you’ll use every day.

The kitchen. The bathrooms. The layout. The finishes.

Our job is different.

We’re looking for the details that can affect the condition, performance, and longevity of the property. Things like structural movement, moisture issues, ventilation concerns, termite risks, and hidden defects.

Because the most important things to know about a property aren’t always the easiest things to see.

That’s where an experienced inspection can make all the difference.

What We Found Wednesday 🔍

After an unseasonably wet winter in Adelaide, this is something our inspectors are keeping a particularly close eye on.

During a recent stage inspection, our team identified mould developing on timber that had been exposed to the elements during construction.

While framing will inevitably encounter some weather, prolonged exposure to wet conditions can create an environment where mould can develop. In this case, the mould will need to be appropriately treated before the build progresses.

From a pest perspective, moisture matters too. Damp conditions and moisture-affected timber can create a more conducive environment for timber pests, including termites, making good moisture management an important part of long-term property protection.

It’s exactly why identifying these issues during construction matters, before they’re concealed by the next stage of the build.

Previous experience in administration, scheduling or customer service is preferred, with experience in property services, trades, inspections or a similar environment highly regarded.

Winter is almost behind us, which makes now a great time to take stock of what the colder, wetter months may have revealed around your property.

Moisture and water ingress, drainage concerns and signs of movement can become more apparent after winter, while warmer days can also bring an increase in pest activity around the home.

For our House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia teams, the change of season means looking at both sides of the picture. What has winter left behind, and what should you be prepared for as we head into spring?

A thorough inspection can help identify concerns early and give you a clearer understanding of what your property may need heading into the warmer months.

👉 Get in touch with House Inspect Australia or Pest Protect Australia to book your inspection.

What We Found Wednesday 🔍

Sometimes finding the problem is only the first step.

Bird activity had resulted in a significant build-up of nesting material and debris in this difficult-to-access roof area, requiring more than a simple clean-up.

Our team cleared the accumulated material before installing bird exclusion netting to help prevent birds from accessing and nesting in the area again.

It’s a great example of how the expertise across House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia can work together, identifying what’s happening around a property and putting practical measures in place to help protect it moving forward.

Another day, another pretty impressive office.

Last week, our inspector Michael was out in West Lakes  completing inspections and enjoying a particularly scenic day on the road.

It’s one of the things we enjoy most about working across House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia. From coastal suburbs to the Adelaide Hills, the city and regional South Australia, every day takes our inspectors somewhere different.

The location might change, but the standard never does. Thorough, independent inspections and advice our clients can rely on, wherever the day takes us.

Need an inspection? Get in touch and we’ll take care of the rest.

Last week, Barney and Litsa attended the Master Builders SA Building Excellence Awards, celebrating the outstanding people, projects and businesses shaping South Australia’s building industry.

One of the highlights was seeing so many of the builders and industry professionals we work alongside recognised for the quality of their work. There’s something incredibly rewarding about watching our clients succeed and knowing that independent inspections and strong industry partnerships can play a part in supporting the standards they work so hard to achieve.

This year’s awards were particularly meaningful, with Litsa having the privilege of joining the judging panel. After seeing the calibre of work firsthand throughout the judging process, it was fantastic to see that quality recognised on the night.

Congratulations to all of this year’s winners and finalists. It’s a privilege to work within an industry that continues to set the bar high and alongside so many of the people helping to raise it.

Not a bad way to start a Monday 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽

This morning we had inspectors from both House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia team up for an inspection to give our client the complete picture of their property.

Working across House and Pest means being part of a team that shares knowledge, supports one another and takes pride in delivering a consistently high standard for our clients. As for the moustaches, whilst not part of the official uniform, they are encouraged.

Creating more opportunities for women in construction takes more than celebrating success. It means having the conversations that help create lasting change.

Recently, Litsa joined Ryan from Metricon Homes to host a Master Builders SA HiViZ panel featuring some of this year’s Women in Construction Award winners, who are now finalists in the upcoming Building Excellence Awards.

As fellow members of the HiViZ committee, Litsa and Ryan led a great discussion around attracting more women to construction, creating workplaces that encourage them to stay, and learning from the experiences of women already building successful careers across the industry.

For House Inspect Australia and Pest Protect Australia, being actively involved in conversations like these is an important part of contributing to the future of the industries we work in every day.

Congratulations again to this year’s HiViZ winners, and good luck to everyone heading into the Master Builders SA Building Excellence Awards this evening.
