About Us
Hidden defects and permit snags sink deals and blow up budgets in Christchurch. We handle building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find the real story early and keep your move, sale, or project on track.
Our inspectors are licensed and insured and know how homes in Christchurch are built and age. We check every accessible space, test heating and cooling, plumbing, and electrical, scan for moisture, look at roof coverings, structure, and drainage, go on roofs when safe, enter crawl spaces, and use thermal imaging, moisture meters, and drone photos when useful, then deliver reports the same day or by morning.
You get clear photos, plain language, and repair priorities, usually with a same day call and a full written report within 24 hours, and you are welcome to walk through with us. We are independent, fully insured, and happy to talk to your agent or builder, and this helps you negotiate with confidence and avoid surprise costs.
We cover full home and commercial building inspections, buyer focused pre-purchase inspection during your option period, seller focused pre-sale inspection before you list, new construction phase checks at pre-pour, frame, pre-drywall, and final, plus eleven month warranty and multi unit inspections. Skipping basics like roof access, utility on checks, GFCI and AFCI testing, drainage grading review, and moisture scanning leads to surprise repairs, reinspection fees, failed appraisals, stop work orders, or insurance claim trouble, so we make sure power, water, gas, and clear access to the attic, crawl space, electrical panel, and water heater are ready before we arrive.
