Buying without a pre-purchase house inspection is how people inherit leaks, unsafe wiring, foundation movement, and pest damage that viewings hide, and relying on a bank valuation or a handy friend is a common and costly mistake. We carry out the inspection before you sign the contract or during your offer period, with a full visual check inside and out plus moisture readings and a clear report so you can negotiate or walk away.
Our inspectors walk every room, roof space, and subfloor where safe access allows, run moisture readings, check drainage, insulation, and ventilation, photograph defects, and deliver a clear report within 24 hours with risk levels and repair guidance. We know Kenepuru construction quirks, we carry proper insurance, and we stand behind our advice so you can negotiate hard or walk away with confidence.

Many buyers rush a pre-purchase house inspection or book it after they go unconditional, and that can hide leaks, unsafe wiring, or drainage problems that turn into five figure repairs. You should book early with an inspection clause and ask for photo evidence of any defects, and for a quick check you can run all taps at once to see if drains slow or pressure drops.
These steps cut repair surprises by thousands, reduce safety risks from faulty wiring or leaks, and give you real bargaining power on price or repairs. Skip them and you risk missed foundation movement, hidden water damage, unsafe electrical work, tougher insurance approvals, and big out-of-pocket repairs after you move in.
