About Us
Unexpected defects can wreck a budget, stall a sale, and spark insurance or lender delays. At Christchurch House Inspections, we handle building inspections in Christchurch including pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection so you catch problems early and move forward with clear numbers, and we schedule them before you close, before you list, or before your builder warranty ends.
We work in Christchurch every day and know local code, permit triggers, and the defects common to this area. Our licensed inspectors check structure, roof, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, and safety items, and we flag unpermitted work that can cause fines or stop work orders, block financing, hurt appraisals, or void insurance claims after a loss.
We show up on time, speak clearly, and stick around after the inspection to answer questions. Common mistakes are skipping the attic and crawl space, not testing ground fault circuit interrupters and arc fault circuit interrupters, ignoring drainage, hiring on price only, and not reading the full report, and when that happens buyers face costly repairs, lender delays, insurance pushback, and code fines in Christchurch.
We offer full building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, pre-sale inspection, new construction phase checks for foundation, framing, rough-in, insulation, and final, commercial property assessments, and eleven month warranty inspections for new homes. These find safety hazards, moisture and drainage problems, electrical defects, unpermitted work, and structural movement, and we do it by walking the roof when safe, entering the attic or crawl space, testing major systems, running moisture and thermal checks, and reviewing permits, because skipping a sewer scope or attic access, not checking permits, or skipping a reinspection after repairs can trigger failed closings, stop work orders, fines, insurance trouble, and repairs that cost far more later.
