About Us

Hidden defects, loan delays, and last minute price cuts all start with missed issues in a property. We at Christchurch Home Inspectors in Christchurch carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection with clear findings and simple next steps so you can move forward with confidence.

We are local inspectors with years of hands on work in Christchurch and we back it with training, certification, and full insurance. We use thermal cameras, moisture meters, outlet testers, and proper ladders, and most homes take about two to three hours depending on size and access, and you get a same day digital report with photos and plain language notes.

You get quick scheduling, straight pricing, and a report that calls out safety hazards, major defects, and minor notes in plain words you can act on. Many people wait until the last week, skip sewer and moisture checks, or forget to review past permits, and that choice often leads to failed closings, stop work orders, surprise repair credits, or higher insurance costs.

We offer buyer pre-purchase inspection to uncover defects before you commit, seller pre-sale inspection to fix issues early and avoid last minute price cuts, new build and one year warranty checks to catch defects while the builder still has to make it right, and maintenance inspections for owners to plan repairs and prevent small problems from turning into big costs. Skipping an inspection or relying on a quick look from a friend risks surprise structural repairs, insurance pushback, delayed closings, and safety hazards in Christchurch.
