About

Karma Inspections

Experienced. Local. On Your Side.

With over 52 years in the building industry, Warren Rennex brings unmatched hands-on experience and practical know-how. A Brisbane local, Warren spent his career as a supervisor and project manager before founding Karma Building & Pest Inspections with his wife, Jennifer.

Starting out as a carpenter and joiner, Warren has worked on a wide range of projects – from large infrastructure works to family homes, renovations, and small extensions. This experience gives him a deep understanding of how homes are built, maintained, and protected; which he brings to every inspection.

At Karma Building & Pest Inspection, we provide local homeowners, buyers, and investors with:

  • Building and pest inspections for residential properties
  • Pre-purchase, rental, and stage inspections (slab, frame, lock-up, and handover stages)
  • Termite repairs, extensions, patios, and internal renovations
  • Practical advice to help you make informed property decisions
