About Us
Permits go sideways, hidden defects pop up, and a missed inspection can stall your project or sink a sale. Palmerston North Building Inspections handles building inspections in Palmerston North for new builds and renovations, plus pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection, so you avoid stop work orders, tear out, and last minute drama.
We are local inspectors who know Palmerston North construction styles, from older homes to new infill, and we follow strict industry standards of practice on every job. We check structure, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, insulation, ventilation, doors and windows, and drainage, we use thermal imaging, moisture meters, and electrical testers, and we deliver same day reports with clear photos and plain language.
You get a same day digital report with photos, plain words, and a punch list you can hand to a contractor. We welcome you on site, we guide timing such as before you waive an inspection contingency or before drywall goes up, and we warn about mistakes we see often such as skipping a sewer scope, ignoring attic ventilation, or relying only on the seller disclosure.
Our building inspections cover structure, roof, exterior, interior, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, insulation, ventilation, and site drainage, and we test fixtures and outlets and run appliances that stay with the home when it’s safe to do so. We also offer pre-purchase inspection and pre-sale inspection, new build phase checks and warranty reviews, and add ons like termite checks and sewer scope where needed, which helps you avoid safety risks, delays, and costly surprises.
