About Us
Hidden issues can wreck your budget and your timeline when you buy or sell property in Christchurch. Christchurch House Inspectors carries out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that reveal risks early, so you avoid failed financing, contract delays, and big repair bills.
Our inspectors are licensed and thorough, and we know local code, consent processes, and common Christchurch construction quirks that trip people up. We check structure, roof and cladding, interiors, plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, insulation, moisture levels, site drainage, and outbuildings, and we explain what is urgent and what can wait.
You get a plain English report the same day with clear photos, defect ratings, repair time frames, and rough cost ranges that help you decide fast. We show up on time, we pick up the phone, we explain the findings in simple terms, and we back you up during repairs or negotiations.
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.
