FAQs About Building Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

A standard house inspection reviews the home’s main systems and parts, such as the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and the overall structure. Inspectors also look at doors, windows, insulation, and other visible items. For a clear breakdown of what our house inspections and building inspections cover, including a pre-sale house inspection, contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Christchurch at 0800 846 525.

Why get a house inspection before I buy?

Getting a house inspection before you buy can find hidden problems that might turn into costly repairs later. It gives you a clear read on the home’s condition, cuts risk, and can give you bargaining power to ask for fixes or a lower price. Even if the seller ordered a pre-sale house inspection, getting your own house inspections or building inspections gives you independent, correct info. For expert house inspections that protect your investment, call Christchurch Building Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

May I be present at the house inspection?

Yes–buyers are welcome, and we recommend being there for the inspection. Being on-site lets you see the property’s condition yourself, ask the inspector questions, and get clear answers in real time.

What if the inspector discovers issues?

Should I get a house inspection for a brand-new home?

Yes. New homes can still have hidden construction defects, missed items, or code issues.

About Us

Hidden defects and code misses can wreck a deal or stall a project in Christchurch. We handle building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection with clear reports and practical next steps so you can move forward with less risk.

Our team has years of hands-on building and inspection experience in Christchurch and we are licensed, insured, and trained to follow local code on residential and light commercial work. Many reports miss roof leaks, damp in walls, poor drainage, unsafe wiring, or unpermitted work, so we check the roof by walking it when safe, scan for moisture, test outlets, open panels when allowed, and crawl the tight spaces others skip.

You get straight pricing, fast booking, and weekend or evening slots when needed, and we show up when we say we will. Most homes take two to three hours and the report lands the same day, we stay on the phone to walk you through the findings, we go where others do not when safe, and our photos and clear priorities make the report easy to act on.

Our services cover full building inspections, targeted moisture checks, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection, and we look at structure, roof, exterior cladding, windows, subfloor, interior, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, electrical, drainage, and outbuildings with moisture metres and thermal imaging where it helps. Common mistakes are skipping the roof or crawl space, not attending the inspection, relying on a quick checklist, or ignoring permit history, and those choices can lead to missed leaks, unsafe wiring, bank or insurance pushback, price drops at settlement, and big repair bills after you move in.
