About Us
You are buying or selling in Palmerston North and you aren’t sure what’s hiding behind the walls. We handle building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that catch safety issues, hidden moisture, unpermitted work, and costly defects before you sign or list.
Our inspectors at Palmerston North Building Inspections know Palmerston North housing stock, common foundation and roof issues, and what local buyers, sellers, and lenders expect. We check structure, roof, exterior, interior, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, crawl spaces, attic, site drainage, and permit history where available, and we follow recognized standards and local codes with the right tools like thermal imaging and moisture meters.
You get a same day digital report with clear photos, moisture readings, and repair priorities you can use to negotiate or plan work. We are independent, fully insured, on time, and easy to reach before and after the inspection, which means fewer surprises and faster decisions.
Our services cover full building inspections, targeted moisture checks, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection, and we look at structure, roof, exterior cladding, windows, subfloor, interior, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, electrical, drainage, and outbuildings with moisture metres and thermal imaging where it helps. Common mistakes are skipping the roof or crawl space, not attending the inspection, relying on a quick checklist, or ignoring permit history, and those choices can lead to missed leaks, unsafe wiring, bank or insurance pushback, price drops at settlement, and big repair bills after you move in.
