About Us

Finding out about a cracked foundation or unsafe wiring after you sign is a punch to the gut. Christchurch House Inspections protects you with careful building inspections in Christchurch, including pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection services that expose hidden issues early and lay out clear fixes.

Our inspectors bring years of hands-on construction and code knowledge in Christchurch, and we work to a detailed method that covers structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, moisture, and drainage. A typical home takes two to three hours on site, we test major systems where safe, we use moisture meters and thermal scanning when needed, and you receive a same day report with photos and plain language.

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 building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, pre-sale inspection, new construction phase checks at footing, slab, framing, rough mechanical, insulation, and final, warranty punch lists, and permit closeout reviews. Each visit looks at structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and air, moisture, safety, and basic code items, which helps you plan repairs, avoid covering work before a rough inspection, make sure there’s safe access with power on, and have your permit number ready for the city.
