Hidden water leaks, unsafe wiring, and unpermitted work can wreck a sale or drain your savings fast. We handle thorough building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection in Palmerston North so you know the real condition, the likely risks, and the next steps before you sign or list.
Our inspectors are licensed and insured in Palmerston North, and we go into crawl spaces, attics, and roof areas to check structure, moisture, plumbing, and electrical for safety and code concerns. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters, review local permit history when available, and deliver a clear report the same day in most cases.
You get clear photos, plain language findings, repair priorities, and practical guidance on what to fix now and what to watch. We show up on time, we welcome you on site, and we answer your questions after the report because a call can save you from guessing and bad decisions.
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.
