While a standard building report assesses the property’s structure and overall condition, it often provides only limited information on the plumbing, drainage, electrical, and gas systems. Hidden issues in these essential services can result in significant repair costs after settlement.
Our specialist pre-purchase inspections go beyond a standard building inspection. We assess visible plumbing systems, hot water cylinders, water pressure, switchboards, earthing systems, and electrical safety, while our advanced CCTV drain surveys inspect underground sewer and stormwater lines for defects, blockages, tree root intrusion, earthquake damage, and age-related deterioration. We also identify compliance concerns, poor workmanship, and potential safety hazards.
Following the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed, easy-to-understand report outlining any defects, risks, and estimated repair or upgrade costs. Whether used alongside a building report or as part of your due diligence process, our pre-purchase home inspections help you make informed decisions and negotiate with confidence.
