Buying without a proper check can leave you with leaks, unsafe wiring, movement in the structure, or pest damage that costs thousands to fix and can hurt insurance later. We carry out a pre-purchase house inspection before you go unconditional, covering structure, roof, interior, wet areas, drainage, and visible plumbing and electrical, with moisture readings, clear photos, and a plain English report.
We are local to Harbour View and our licensed inspectors carry out detailed house inspections and building inspections week in, week out. We explain findings in plain language, give practical next steps, and stand behind our work with clear pricing and full insurance.

You are about to buy and worry about what you cannot see behind paint or under floors. Book a pre-purchase house inspection before you sign, during the cooling off period, or before you go unconditional so we can find safety risks, leaks, damp, structural movement, and give repair cost guidance you can use to negotiate or to walk away.
At Lower Hutt House Inspections, our licensed inspectors in Harbour View follow recognised standards for building inspections, use moisture meters and thermal imaging, and physically check every accessible area from roof to subfloor. Many buyers skip the check, rely on a seller report, or pick the cheapest option, which often leads to costly repairs, insurance issues, or safety risks after settlement, so we give a plain English photo report the same day and talk you through the findings.

We work in Lower Hutt every day and know local code, permit triggers, and the defects common to this area. Our licensed inspectors check structure, roof, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, and safety items, and we flag unpermitted work that can cause fines or stop work orders, block financing, hurt appraisals, or void insurance claims after a loss.
You get a same day photo report, repair priorities that separate urgent from later, and a call to walk you through the key risks. We don’t skip the roof or the crawl space, we scan wet areas with moisture meters, we check attics and subfloors where safe, and we’re independent with fixed pricing and no referral kickbacks, which means no surprises and no pressure.
We offer full building inspections, targeted buyer checks, seller tune-ups, new build stage inspections, maintenance checks, and re-inspections to confirm repairs, because each step spots different risks and can save real money. Common mistakes are skipping the roof or attic, rushing due to a short escrow, relying on seller disclosures alone, or ignoring a small moisture note, and those misses can lead to surprise repairs, lost credits, failed city inspections, or insurance trouble.
