Frequently Asked Questions About Building Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

A standard house inspection reviews all major systems and parts of the home, such as the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and structural integrity. Inspectors also look at doors, windows, insulation, and other visible items; this scope is the same for house inspections, building inspections, and a pre-sale house inspection. For a detailed breakdown of what’s covered, contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Richmond at 0800 846 525.

Why should I arrange a house inspection before I buy?

Getting a house inspection before buying can uncover issues you will not spot in a quick viewing–like leaks, structural movement, drainage problems, or unsafe wiring–that can lead to expensive repairs later. It also gives you a clearer picture of the home’s true condition so you can negotiate the price or ask for repairs; in many places these are called building inspections, and sellers often get a pre-sale house inspection for similar peace of mind. For expert home inspections that protect your investment, call Christchurch Building Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

Can I be present at the house inspection?

Yes, we recommend buyers attend the inspection. Being there lets you see the home’s condition yourself and ask the inspector questions on the spot, whether it’s a standard house inspection or a pre-sale house inspection. Book your building inspection with Christchurch Building Inspections in Richmond for practical guidance–call 0800 846 525 to schedule.

How long does a home inspection usually take?

How long it takes depends on the home’s size and condition; most house inspections and building inspections take about two to four hours. To book a thorough pre-sale house inspection with Christchurch Building Inspections, contact us in Richmond at 0800 846 525.

What if the inspector discovers issues?

If the inspector flags problems, you will get a clear report that lists each item and how serious it is. You can use it to negotiate repairs or change your offer. Don’t risk moving forward without facts–contact Christchurch Building Inspections in Richmond at 0800 846 525 for a thorough house inspection, building inspection, or pre-sale house inspection.

Do I need a house inspection for a brand-new home?

Yes, even new builds can have hidden construction mistakes or skipped details. A professional house inspection or building inspection helps make sure your new investment is safe and meets code and workmanship standards. Whether it’s new construction or a pre-sale house inspection, an independent check catches issues early so you can get fixes before you move in. Call Christchurch Building Inspections in Richmond at 0800 846 525 to schedule a new home inspection today.

How do I get my home ready for inspection?
