Finding out about a cracked foundation or unsafe wiring after you sign is a punch to the gut. Franklin House Inspections protects you with careful building inspections in Auckland, including pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection services that expose hidden issues early and lay out clear fixes.
We are Franklin House Inspections, a local inspection team based in Auckland with deep building knowledge and careful work. We check roof to foundation with thermal imaging, moisture testing, safe roof walks when conditions allow, and same day photo reports that you can actually read.
You get quick scheduling, straight pricing, and a report that calls out safety hazards, major defects, and minor notes in plain words you can act on. Many people wait until the last week, skip sewer and moisture checks, or forget to review past permits, and that choice often leads to failed closings, stop work orders, surprise repair credits, or higher insurance costs.
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.
