FAQs About Building Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

A standard house inspection looks at all the major systems and parts of the home, like the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and overall structural soundness. Inspectors also check doors, windows, insulation, and other visible, accessible items. This scope is similar for most building inspections and a pre-sale house inspection. For a detailed list of what’s covered in house inspections, contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Hornby at 0800 846 525.

Why should I arrange a pre-sale house inspection before buying?

Getting a professional house inspection before you buy can reveal hidden problems–like structural issues, roof leaks, electrical faults, or moisture–that can turn into costly repairs. It gives you a clearer picture of the home’s condition and the power to negotiate the price or ask for repairs. For thorough house inspections and building inspections that protect your investment, and to help review a seller’s pre-sale house inspection, call Christchurch Building Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

Can I be present at the house inspection?

Yes, buyers are welcome to be there for the inspection. Being on site lets you see the home’s condition up close, ask the inspector questions, and understand the findings from house inspections or building inspections.

How much time does a house inspection usually take?

What if the inspector discovers issues?

Don’t buy blind–contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Hornby at 0800 846 525 for a thorough building inspection or pre-sale house inspection.

Should I get a house inspection for a newly built home?

How should I get my home ready for inspection?

Our licensed inspectors work across Christchurch every week and know local code, lender expectations, and what tends to fail in homes here.
