About Us
Buying or selling in Christchurch without the right checks can lead to pricey surprises. At Christchurch House Inspections, we carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that take two to four hours on site and come with a same day report so you can act fast.
Our inspectors are licensed and thorough, and we know local code, consent processes, and common Christchurch construction quirks that trip people up. We check structure, roof and cladding, interiors, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, insulation, moisture levels, site drainage, and outbuildings, and we explain what’s urgent and what can wait.
You get honest findings, on time starts, and real guidance on what is urgent and what can wait, and we welcome you to be on site so you can see the issues in real time. Common mistakes in Christchurch are booking at the last minute, skipping the roof or crawlspace, ignoring drainage and moisture testing, not checking permits, and not booking a reinspection after repairs, which can lead to surprise costs, code fines, insurance problems, or a buyer walking away.
We cover full home and commercial building inspections, buyer focused pre-purchase inspection during your option period, seller focused pre-sale inspection before you list, new construction phase checks at pre-pour, frame, pre-drywall, and final, plus eleven month warranty and multi unit inspections. Skipping basics like roof access, utility on checks, GFCI and AFCI testing, drainage grading review, and moisture scanning leads to surprise repairs, reinspection fees, failed appraisals, stop work orders, or insurance claim trouble, so we make sure power, water, gas, and clear access to the attic, crawl space, electrical panel, and water heater are ready before we arrive.
