FAQs About House Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

A standard house inspection reviews all major systems and parts of the home, such as the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and overall structure.

For a clear rundown of what’s included, contact Christchurch House Inspections in Merivale at 0800 846 525.

Why should I arrange a house inspection before buying?

A pre-sale house inspection before you buy can reveal issues you will not spot at an open home, which can turn into costly repairs later.

For expert house inspections and building inspections that protect your investment, call Christchurch House Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

Am I allowed to come to the house inspection?

Yes, buyers are encouraged to come to the inspection. It lets you see the home’s condition firsthand, ask the inspector direct questions, and understand the report better.

About Us

Hidden defects can wreck a deal in Christchurch and drain your budget after you move in. At Christchurch House Inspections we carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that uncover issues early and give you clear next steps.

Our licensed inspectors work across Christchurch every week and know local code, lender expectations, and what tends to fail in homes here. We get on roofs when safe, enter roof spaces and subfloors, test moisture, and use thermal scanning when needed because the biggest mistakes are skipping hard-to-reach areas, trusting a seller note, or rushing the job, which is how expensive problems stay hidden.

You get clear photos, plain language findings, repair priorities, and practical guidance on what to fix now and what to watch. We show up on time, we welcome you on site, and we answer your questions after the report because a call can save you from guessing and bad decisions.

Our services cover pre-purchase inspection, pre-sale inspection, new construction stage checks, warranty and annual maintenance inspections, rental move in and move out inspections, reinspections after repairs, and commercial building inspections. Each visit reviews structure, roof, exterior, interior, site drainage, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, attic and crawl space where accessible, and signs of unpermitted work so you can budget, meet lender or insurance needs, and avoid stop work orders under Christchurch rules.

We handle pre-purchase inspection before your cooling off ends, pre-sale inspection before you list, and new build stage checks at slab, frame, pre-sheet, waterproofing, and practical completion, along with builder warranty and rental safety checks. These checks find leaks, unsafe wiring, drainage faults, movement, termite risk, and code issues early, which helps you avoid delays, fines, and costly repairs.
