Adam Liddell Carried 25 Years of Construction Into Jim's Building Inspections

In this Jim's Building Inspections WA franchisee testimonial, Adam Liddell — based in St Hilda East — walks through the move from a 25-year construction career into a Jim's Building Inspections franchise. He joined the network in 2017 after obtaining his registered builder's licence and saw inspections as a way to apply those qualifications while building better work-life balance than commercial construction allowed. Adam credits the support across the system as the reason the transition has been workable. Office support, marketing, technical support and training are all called out specifically, alongside the iPad-driven inspection technology that makes the on-site work efficient. Ongoing technical support is available whenever he needs it, which lowers the barrier for franchisees stepping into inspection work for the first time. Local area marketing supplied through Jim's has been the engine for client acquisition. Adam describes it as the practical tool that has let him get out, meet new customers and build a client database in his Western Australian territory. The training programme covers four core areas — residential construction, termite, new construction and asbestos — which he singles out as the key elements every Jim's Building Inspections franchisee performs in the field. Peer support across the franchisee network has also been a standout feature. When Adam encounters a technical issue he has not handled before, he reaches out to other franchisees and gets the answer he needs. His business goal is to establish a large client base and a successfully run inspection business over the next two to five years, with stable income and the family balance the franchise has already given him.
