Pre-Sale Building Inspection Upper Riccarton

Looking for Expert Pre-Sale Building Inspection Solutions in Upper Riccarton

Professional Upper Riccarton Pre-Sale Building Inspection

Buyers order their own building inspections and use defects to cut the price, delay settlement, or leave the deal. A pre-sale house inspection by our licensed inspectors finds problems early, such as roof leaks, damp subfloor, cracked brickwork, and missing smoke alarms, and it works best when done two to four weeks before you list so you’ve time to fix and document them, because a rushed or incomplete check can spark disputes and second round negotiations.

  • We Check Structure And Roof.
  • We Test For Moisture Intrusion.
  • We Inspect Plumbing And Electrical.
  • We Provide Same-Day Written Report.

We are local to Upper Riccarton, independent, and licensed, and we deliver clear same day reports with photos. Common mistakes we help you avoid include waiting until after you list, skipping moisture checks, and missing roof or subfloor defects that can cause price drops or failed contracts.

About Us

Hidden defects can sink a deal fast in Christchurch and the Christchurch building department still expects proper documentation. We handle building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection with clear reports that help you move forward with confidence and meet permit and code needs, and you should book before your offer contingencies expire or before you start any remodel to avoid delays, fines, and do-overs.

Our licensed inspectors know Christchurch building methods and have the ability to catch patterns that out of town teams miss. We check structure, roof, attic, crawl space, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, grading, and moisture with tools like thermal imaging and moisture meters, and we invite you to attend because skipping the walkthrough, ignoring the full report, or waiting until the end of the inspection period are mistakes that cost people the most.

Many people book late, skip the crawl space, accept a checklist with no photos, or ignore needed reinspections after repairs, and that can lead to missed hazards, failed closings, fines, or insurance trouble in Christchurch. We keep you on track with fixed pricing, prompt scheduling, a report that lays out major, minor, and maintenance items with photos and clear next steps, and a call with your inspector to go over it.

Our core services include full building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, pre-sale inspection, new construction stage checks, and re-inspections after repairs. Each service covers a different moment in your project so you can set the right price, fix issues before listing, catch defects before drywall, and confirm repairs, which means fewer surprises and stronger bargaining power.
