Pre-Sales Inspections

Selling a property? Be a pro-active vendor and benefit from having a pre-sale inspection undertaken while time is on your side. You’ll have an upfront idea on the condition of your property, and understand how potential purchasers will view it in today’s market.

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Buying a property will be one of your biggest investments so why take a chance. We will carry out a thorough inspection of your property and provide you with a fair and honest comprehensive written report complete with photos of any problems.

MOISTURE/CLADDING ASSESSMENTS

Our cladding assessments provide a comprehensive report using the latest non-invasive technology. The inspection includes a site visit.

Compliance Issues

Building work carried out without required approvals from Local Authorities can prove to be quite an ordeal when selling your property. A report can satisfy the prospective purchaser that work has been carried out to relevant standards, and be forwarded to Council to be placed on the property file to enable them to update the LIM.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging can differentiate between the temperature of wall linings and the temperature of the stud, and is used to detect damp timber, leaks, condensation, moisture and cladding failure.

House Relocation

We are very much aware of the requirements of all councils (local and afar) regarding relocation reports as part of consent (planning and building) approvals. We carry out a site visit to determine the condition of the building for removal, photograph it and make all recommendations necessary in the report.

No magic bullet for housing crisis

OPINION: I recently went back to the house I grew up in: a pretty modest brick place on Arthur St, Oamaru.

Out in the yard, the current owners had a surprise for me. It was a tiny name, scratched in the cement foundations of a fence post.
