What you get with our pre-purchase house inspection.
Most buyers miss problems in the roof space, subfloor, drainage grading, and non-compliant do-it-yourself work, and some inspectors rush or skip tight areas. We check the lot with moisture metres and thermal imaging, give plain language findings with repair cost ranges, and back you during talks with the agent or seller, so you don’t get hit with surprise bills, financing delays, or insurance pushback after settlement.

The most common mess with a pre-purchase house inspection is rushing and trusting a seller report that skips the roof space or subfloor. Book your own licensed building inspection before you go unconditional, where the inspector checks the roof space, subfloor, exterior cladding, drainage, plumbing fixtures, electrical outlets, and heating and cooling, and on the viewing day do one quick check by running every tap for one minute and looking under each sink for drips.
Use these and you cut the chance of hidden rot, pooling water, or non-consented work and you know repair costs before your deadline. No surprises later.

A pre-purchase house inspection is a detailed check of a property’s condition before you commit to buy. The review covers the structure, roof, plumbing, electrical systems, and other key areas to find hidden problems–much like general house inspections or building inspections, and similar to a pre-sale house inspection when you’re selling. For peace of mind before you buy, contact Porirua House Inspections in Papakowhai at 0800 754 161.

Our services include full building inspections for buyers, pre-purchase inspection with safety and maintenance notes, pre-sale inspection that helps you price right and cut renegotiations, new build stage and handover checks, rental and annual maintenance checks, and re-inspections of repairs after the work is done. Skipping any of these can leave you with hidden costs, stalled settlements, or safety risks that could have been found in a few hours.
We handle pre-purchase inspection before your cooling off ends, pre-sale inspection before you list, and new build stage checks at slab, frame, pre-sheet, waterproofing, and practical completion, along with builder warranty and rental safety checks. These checks find leaks, unsafe wiring, drainage faults, movement, termite risk, and code issues early, which helps you avoid delays, fines, and costly repairs.
