For Building Inspectors & Buyers Advocates · Victoria
Meth Residue Testing as an Add-On for Your Building Inspection Clients
Give your clients a complete pre-purchase picture. Independent NATA accredited testing, referred by inspectors and buyers advocates across Melbourne and Victoria wide.

01 / The gap in a standard inspection
The gap in a standard inspection.
A building and pest inspection covers structural integrity, not chemical contamination. Meth residue testing sits outside the scope of most inspectors' reports, which means your clients can walk away from a pre-purchase inspection believing they've covered everything, without ever being told this gap exists. Offering a trusted referral closes that gap and adds real value to your service, without you having to build the capability yourself.

02 / Why partners refer to SafeTrace
Why inspectors and buyers advocates refer to SafeTrace.
We stay in our lane
We test only, we never decontaminate, and we never touch remediation work, so there's no conflict of interest for you to manage or explain to a client.
We work around your timelines
Same-week attendance, results issued the same day where possible, so we don't hold up your client's due diligence period.
Discreet by design
Unmarked vehicle, no signage, no reference to the substance in any text-based communication, your client's privacy is protected throughout.
Documented, defensible reporting
NIOSH 9111 methodology and NATA accredited lab confirmation, reports that hold up if a result becomes part of a negotiation or dispute.
03 / Why it holds up
Independence that protects your reputation and your client.
- NIOSH 9111 certified sampling method
- NATA accredited laboratory, VCAT defensible reports
- $20m public liability, $2m professional indemnity insured
- Independent from remediation — we test only, full stop
- Discreet attendance, no substance references in texts or emails

04 / How the referral works
Four steps, from flagging the add-on to a documented result.
- 01
You flag testing as an available add-on
During your inspection or advisory process, you let your client know that meth residue testing is available as an add-on. No obligation, no pressure — simply closing the gap.
- 02
Your client contacts us directly, or you make a warm introduction
Your client can reach out to us directly, or you make a warm introduction by phone or email. We confirm the details and a time that suits them.
- 03
We attend within days, discreet and unmarked
Our technician attends in an unmarked vehicle with no signage, completes the NIOSH 9111 screen on site, and explains the readings before leaving.
- 04
Results go to your client, with a copy available to you
Results are issued to your client directly. A copy is available to you on request, so you can include it in your advisory file if it becomes relevant to the transaction.
One referral closes the gap your standard inspection can't — and keeps you out of work that isn't yours to perform.
