Buying a house without the right checks can leave you with leaks, unsafe wiring, pest damage, or structural movement that cost thousands later. Our pre-purchase house inspection finds major and minor issues before you sign or before your cooling off period ends, and we give a clear report with photos so you can negotiate or walk away.
People call us because we’re licensed and insured inspectors in Waiuku who have completed many house inspections and we use moisture metres, thermal imaging, and safe access to the roof and subfloor to do the job right. Skipping a thorough building inspection or booking after the contract deadline can lose your negotiating power and leave you with unsafe defects and large repair bills.
