Frequently Asked Questions About Building Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

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

Why get a house inspection before I buy?

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 bargaining 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.

May I be present at the house inspection?

Yes, buyers are encouraged to come to house inspections–whether it’s a standard building inspection or a pre-sale house inspection. It gives you a chance to see the home’s condition firsthand and ask the inspector questions on the spot. Schedule your inspection with Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley for clear, practical guidance–call 0800 846 525 to book now.

How much time does a house inspection usually take?

The time for house inspections varies with the home’s size and condition, but most building inspections take two to four hours. If you are booking a pre-sale house inspection, plan for the same window. To book a thorough inspection with Christchurch Building Inspections, contact us in Shirley at 0800 846 525.

What if the inspector uncovers issues?

If the inspector finds problems during house inspections or building inspections, you’ll 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 thorough inspection.

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

Yes. Even new construction can hide defects, code misses, or items the builder overlooked. A professional building inspection makes sure your investment is safe and up to standard, much like a pre-sale house inspection does for existing homes. Call Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525 to book a new home house inspection today.

How can I get my home ready for inspection?

Before the visit, make sure every part of the home can be reached, including the attic, basement, and utility rooms, whether it’s for house inspections, building inspections, or a pre-sale house inspection. Clear out clutter and open any gates or cabinets that could block access. For a smooth inspection, call Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525.

Can a house inspection impact the sale of a home?

Yes, house inspections can sway a buyer’s decision and may lead to price changes or repair requests when issues show up. Doing a pre-sale house inspection lets you fix problems before you list, which can make buyer building inspections smoother and cut delays. Call Christchurch Building Inspections in Shirley at 0800 846 525 to schedule an inspection that sets you up for a cleaner sale.

About Us

Hidden defects, unpermitted work, or a missed safety issue can wreck a sale or stick you with repairs you did not budget for. Christchurch Building Inspections handles detailed building inspections in Christchurch, including pre-purchase inspection before you go unconditional, pre-sale inspection before you list, and new construction stage checks so you know the real condition and your next steps.

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.

Many people book late, skip the crawl space, accept a checklist with no photos, or ignore needed reinspections after repairs, and that can lead to missed hazards, failed closings, fines, or insurance trouble in Christchurch. We keep you on track with fixed pricing, prompt scheduling, a report that lays out major, minor, and maintenance items with photos and clear next steps, and a call with your inspector to go over it.

We cover pre-purchase inspection before you remove contingencies, pre-sale inspection before you list, new build and warranty checks, maintenance inspections, and repair reinspections. Skipping the attic or crawl space, booking late, or relying on a quick look can lead to missed defects, lender or appraisal trouble, price cuts, or a deal falling through, so our process checks structure, roof, moisture, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, drainage, site grading, and visible permit history when available with a photo rich report delivered promptly.
