Papanui's Approach to Building Inspections Services

Rushed checks miss leaks, unsafe wiring, and drainage problems that turn into large repair bills after settlement. Our house inspections Papanui cover pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection needs with a thorough, photographed assessment done before you make an offer, during the cooling off period, or before you list, and we give a clear plan to repair, renegotiate, or market with confidence.

Here is how we carry out your inspection from booking to report.

  • Pre Call Planning And Scope
  • Full Walkthrough And System Checks
  • Same Day Photos And Report

From roof to crawlspace we check structure, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, moisture, drainage, insulation, and safety, with thermal imaging, moisture readings, and drone or pole camera views when access is limited. People often skip the crawlspace, rely on seller notes, or hire only by price, and that leads to missed leaks, movement, and mould that can set back financing, push repairs after closing, and hurt resale value.

About Us

Buying or selling without a proper check can backfire fast in Christchurch, from safety risks to failed closings to repair bills you didn’t 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.

We are local inspectors with years of hands on work in Christchurch and we back it with training, certification, and full insurance. We use thermal cameras, moisture meters, outlet testers, and proper ladders, and most homes take about two to three hours depending on size and access, and you get a same day digital report with photos and plain language notes.

Reports arrive within 24 hours with photos, plain language, and a repair priority list. We show up on time, use pro grade tools like moisture meters and thermal imaging, and we’re happy to walk the property with you and answer questions.

We offer full building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection plus new construction phase checks and annual maintenance reviews. Each service helps you spot issues early, confirm permits because Christchurch requires permits for structural, electrical, plumbing, and heating work, avoid common mistakes like skipping a sewer scope or waiting too late in a short contingency, and avoid relying on a city inspector who checks only permitted work and not the whole property.
