Hidden defects in the roof, subfloor, wiring, and wet areas can blow your budget, and many buyers skip the roof space, the crawl space, or rely on a quick walk through with no written report, which can leave you stuck with unsafe wiring or leaks that insurers won’t cover. Our pre-purchase house inspection finds structural, moisture, plumbing, electrical, and safety issues before you go unconditional, using ladders, crawl space access, thermal imaging, and moisture metres, with a same day report you can use to negotiate or walk away.
We are local to Papaioea, licensed and insured, and we inspect to accredited building inspection standards using moisture metres, thermal scanning, and safe access to subfloor and roof space where possible. Many buyers rely on a quick once over or book the inspection after finance approval, which weakens your negotiation power and can leave you paying for pre existing faults after settlement.
