About Us
Surprises in a home or small commercial space can wreck a deal, drain cash, or spark code trouble in Christchurch. We handle detailed building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection at Christchurch House Inspections, and we find the issues early so you can move forward with clarity or step back with confidence.
We work in Christchurch every day with trained eyes and real tools. We climb where it’s safe, check structure and drainage, run plumbing and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, test outlets and fixtures, scan for moisture with meters and thermal cameras, review permits when available, and deliver a same day or next morning report with photos and plain language.
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’s uninsured and rushed.
Our building inspections cover structure, roof, foundation, drainage, exterior cladding and flashing, attic and insulation, windows and doors, plumbing and water heater safety, electrical panels and outlets, heating and cooling, ventilation, and safety devices such as smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. A pre-purchase inspection finds big issues before you commit so you can negotiate with facts, and a pre-sale inspection lets you fix problems before listing so you avoid price drops, failed appraisals, or permit snags with the Christchurch building department.
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.
