About Us

Hidden issues can wreck a sale, stall permits, or put people at risk, and they tend to show up after you commit money. Christchurch House Inspections tackles this head on with detailed building inspections in Christchurch, plus pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection that uncover problems early and lay out clear next steps.

Our inspectors at Christchurch House Inspections know Christchurch 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 recognized standards and local codes with the right tools like thermal imaging and moisture meters.

You get a same day digital report with photos, plain language notes, and clear repair priorities, plus a phone walk through to answer questions. We help you dodge common mistakes like booking after the cooling off period, trusting seller disclosure without verification, or hiring someone who is uninsured and rushed.

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.

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.
