  • Roof And Subfloor Check
  • Moisture And Leak Detection

Our licensed and insured team knows local Shirley homes and we check all accessible areas including roof space, subfloor, exterior cladding, and wet areas, using moisture meters, thermal scanning, ladders or drone for high roofs, and then we send a plain English, photo packed, bank ready report with repair priorities on the same day. People often book after the cooling off period or hire someone who only gives a verbal summary or has no insurance, and that leads to lost bargaining power, settlement delays, or big repair bills landing on you.

Frequently Asked Questions About Building Inspections

What does a standard house inspection cover?

A standard house inspection looks at all major systems and parts of the property, including the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical systems, heating and cooling, and the home’s structural condition. Inspectors also check doors, windows, insulation, and other accessible areas. For a detailed breakdown of what our house inspections and building inspections cover, or if you need a pre-sale house inspection, contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525.

Why should I book a house inspection before purchase?

A house inspection or building inspection before you commit can reveal hidden problems that might turn into costly fixes later. You get peace of mind, and you may also gain bargaining power to negotiate the price. For expert house inspections that help protect your investment, call Christchurch Building Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

Can I be present at the house inspection?

Yes, buyers are welcome to attend the inspection. Being there lets you see the home’s condition firsthand, ask the inspector questions, and better understand any findings from house inspections or building inspections. Book your pre-sale house inspection with Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley for clear, useful information–call 0800 846 525 to book now.

How long does a house inspection usually take?

The time needed for a house inspection depends on the home’s size and condition, but most house inspections and building inspections run about two to four hours, including a pre-sale house inspection. To get started with a thorough inspection from Christchurch Building Inspections, contact us in Shirley at 0800 846 525.

What if the inspector discovers problems?

If the inspector finds problems during house inspections or building inspections, you will get a clear report that lays out the defects and how serious they are. You can use that to negotiate repairs or adjust your offer, including on a pre-sale house inspection. Don’t buy blind–reach out to Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525 for a comprehensive inspection.

Is a house inspection needed for a newly built home?

Yes. Brand-new houses can still have missed items, code problems, or workmanship defects that a quick walk-through will not catch. A professional house inspection (a building inspection for new builds) helps confirm the work is right and safe, and that your investment meets the standard you paid for. Even if it’s not a pre-sale house inspection, getting it done now can save hassles later. Call Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525 to book your new home inspection today.

About Us

Buying or selling without a proper check can backfire fast in Christchurch, from safety risks to failed closings to repair bills you did not see coming. Christchurch Building Inspections handles building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection with careful on site checks and clear reports, and we help you time it right by booking pre-purchase during your due diligence window and pre-sale four to six weeks before you list.

Our trained team has decades of combined experience in residential and light commercial work, and we are fussy about the details. We follow local code and industry standards, use moisture meters and thermal imaging where needed, access roof spaces and subfloors when safe, and deliver a clear photo heavy report the same day in most cases.

You get a same day digital report with photos, plain words, and a punch list you can hand to a contractor. We welcome you on site, we guide timing such as before you waive an inspection contingency or before drywall goes up, and we warn about mistakes we see often such as skipping a sewer scope, ignoring attic ventilation, or relying only on the seller disclosure.

Skip or rush an inspection and you risk contract delays, finance knockbacks, unsafe defects that grow, and costly disputes after settlement. We offer pre-purchase inspection before you go unconditional, pre-sale inspection before you list, and new build stage and handover inspections that catch defects while the builder still has to fix them.
