Our Pre-Purchase Building Inspection Process in Wigram

Hidden defects sink budgets, and the big ones we see in a pre-purchase house inspection are roof leaks, subfloor damp, poor drainage, unsafe wiring, termite damage, and unapproved building work. Most buyers book too late, skip moisture or pest checks, or trust a seller report, so we step in early, coordinate access before auction or during your cooling off period, and give you a clear independent view you can act on.

Here is how we run building inspections from booking to decision.

  • We Check Roof To Subfloor
  • We Test For Moisture And Termites
  • We Send Same Day Report With Photos

Most buyers skip roof spaces, subfloors, and moisture testing and trust a quick look or a lender valuation, which can lead to safety risks, insurance problems, and large repair bills. We check structure, roofing, foundations, exterior drainage, plumbing, electrical items, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, and insulation with ladders, crawl access, moisture metres, and thermal imaging and we send a plain language photo report the same day.

The Benefits of Going with a Skilled Wigram's Best Pre-Purchase Building Inspection Service

Hidden defects, unconsented work, and safety risks can drain your budget and cause finance delays or insurance refusal, and common mistakes include skipping the roof space and subfloor, relying on a seller report, or booking a pre-purchase house inspection after the cooling off period.

Here is what our building inspections give you.

  • Major Defects Found Early
  • Moisture And Leak Detection
  • Real Repair Cost Guidance

We book promptly and carry out a full check of roof, exterior, interior, structure, subfloor, roof space, site drainage, plumbing fixtures under normal use, basic electrical points, moisture readings, and thermal scanning, then we call to walk you through the report. Many buyers skip the roof or subfloor, rely on a friend, or pick the cheapest report, and that mistake can lead to missed movement, leaks that spread, pest damage, and non compliant work that hurts insurance, finance, and resale.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pre-Purchase Building Inspection

What does a pre-purchase house inspection involve?

A pre-purchase house inspection is a detailed review of a property’s condition done before you complete the purchase, often grouped with other house inspections and building inspections. This type of building inspection covers the structure, roof, plumbing, electrical systems, and other key parts to find any hidden issues. For peace of mind before you buy or to book a pre-sale house inspection, contact Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525.

Why do homebuyers need a pre-purchase inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection–often called a house inspection or building inspection–shows the true condition of the property and helps you avoid expensive surprises after closing. It also gives you leverage for price talks or repair requests, which is especially useful as part of a pre-sale house inspection. Call Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525 to book your inspection today.

When should I schedule a pre-purchase inspection?

Book it right after your offer is accepted but before the contract is binding. That timing lets you read the report, ask questions, and decide what to do next. Many buyers set up house inspections or building inspections–whether it’s a pre-purchase or a pre-sale house inspection–during this window. To book your inspection, call Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525.

How detailed is the pre-purchase inspection report?

The report lays out clear findings for all accessible parts of the home, covering structural components, roofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems–consistent with our house inspections and building inspections, including a pre-sale house inspection. Photos and notes are usually added to make the details clear. To get a detailed report, contact Christchurch House Inspections at 0800 846 525.

Can a pre-purchase inspection help you negotiate the purchase price?

Yes. When the inspection finds issues, you can often use the report from house inspections or building inspections to ask for repairs, a credit, or a lower price from the seller. Don’t miss out–call Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525 to book your inspection.

What problems are typically uncovered in a pre-purchase inspection?

Typical findings are roof wear or damage, plumbing leaks, electrical issues, structural cracking, poor drainage, and signs of termites or other pests, often the same items flagged in building inspections or a pre-sale house inspection. Catching these early can cut costs and headaches. Schedule your house inspection with Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525.

Who covers the cost of a pre-purchase house inspection?

The buyer usually pays for the pre-purchase house inspection or building inspection, since it’s done to protect their investment. It’s a small cost for big peace of mind. Contact Christchurch House Inspections in Wigram at 0800 846 525 to get started.

Is a pre-purchase inspection still needed if the house looks well maintained?

Yes. Even a place that looks well cared for can hide issues not obvious without training–moisture problems, unsafe wiring, or structural movement. A professional doing house inspections or building inspections makes sure you’ve the right facts before you decide, and the same applies if you want a pre-sale house inspection to prepare.
