Hidden leaks, unsafe wiring, timber pest damage, and foundation movement are costly to fix after settlement and they rarely show up during a quick walk-through.

Our inspectors are licensed, insured, and experienced in local building types across Buckland. We invite you to attend, ask questions, and leave with plain answers, repair urgency guidance, and a report you can use to negotiate or walk away.

Hidden issues can wreck a sale or blow up a budget in Auckland. At Franklin House Inspections, we carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find problems early and help you avoid costly repairs, safety hazards, failed finance, and city stop work orders.
Our local team knows Auckland construction across new builds and older homes, and we follow the International Residential Code with Auckland amendments. We are licensed and insured, we run water at every fixture, test outlets and safety devices, check heating, ventilation and air conditioning performance, use thermal imaging and moisture meters when helpful, and we climb into attics and crawl spaces so obvious issues don’t get missed.
You get fast scheduling, fair pricing, and a same day digital report with photos, repair priorities, and risk levels. We pick up the phone, meet you or your contractor on site, and help you pass rechecks without delays or repeat fees.
We offer full building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection plus new construction phase checks and annual maintenance reviews.
