You don’t want surprise defects after you move in or lose your chance to renegotiate before settlement. Our pre-purchase house inspection flags structural, moisture, roofing, plumbing, electrical, and safety issues before you sign or during the cooling off period, and we explain what matters and what it costs to fix.
Many buyers skip the roof space and subfloor, rely on a friend, or accept a verbal check, and they inherit unsafe wiring, rot, or leaking showers. We are Franklin House Inspections and we do thorough house inspections and building inspections with safe access, moisture metres, thermal imaging, and clear written reports that flag urgent risks and likely repair costs.

Many buyers in Waiau Pa miss hidden structural movement, moisture ingress, termite activity, unsafe wiring, unpermitted work, and failing drainage when they skip or rush a pre-purchase house inspection or book the cheapest inspector, and the result can be costly repairs, finance delays, or insurance refusals. We schedule promptly before your offer goes unconditional and carry out thorough house inspections and building inspections that find risks early, estimate repair costs, and give you leverage to renegotiate or walk.
This is what our process covers from booking to report.
Many buyers accept a seller report, skip the roof space, or rush past moisture testing and end up blind. We work fast without cutting corners, which matters when you have a short cooling off period, and our inspectors go in the roof space and subfloor, use moisture metres and thermal imaging where needed, and separate major from minor so you do not overreact or overlook what really costs money.

A common challenge with a pre-purchase house inspection is rushing and missing hidden moisture, unsafe wiring, or movement in the foundation. The fix is to plan enough time, do a tiny pre-check with a flashlight under every sink and a marble on the floor to see if it rolls, then let a qualified inspector spend two to three hours checking roof, structure, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, drainage, and safety.
Follow these and you cut hidden damage risk, avoid contract delays and insurance denials, and gain stronger price bargaining power with clear house inspections. Costs add up.

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 inspectors at Franklin House Inspections know Auckland housing stock, common foundation and roof issues, and what local buyers, sellers, and lenders expect. We check structure, roof, exterior, interior, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, crawl spaces, attic, site drainage, and permit history where available, and we follow established standards and local codes with the right tools like thermal imaging and moisture meters.
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 offer full building inspections for homes and small commercial spaces, targeted pre-purchase inspection before you commit, pre-sale inspection to fix issues before listing, new construction phase checks, and warranty inspections near the end of the first year. Each service helps you make a clear decision, keeps surprises out of negotiations, supports lender and insurance needs when required, and helps contractors quote the right scope.
