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.
We are local to Melling and we carry out thorough house inspections that go into the roof space and under the floor, not just a checklist. Many buyers rely on seller reports or book after they go unconditional and that can hide termites or moisture problems, so we talk you through findings, likely repair costs, and next steps the same day.

What you gain with our pre-purchase house inspection
Our licensed inspectors check the roof surface, roof space, subfloor, exterior cladding, interiors, plumbing fixtures, drainage, site grading, and visible electrical safety, with moisture metre readings, thermal imaging where helpful, drone roof checks when needed, and dozens of location tagged photos with plain language findings and repair cost ranges. Many buyers book after going unconditional, accept a verbal look over, or pick the cheapest quote with a vague scope, which leads to missed defects, insurance or lender issues, and big repair bills, while our process is independent, insured, fixed price, includes a phone consult, and lets you attend the inspection.

Hidden issues can wreck a sale or blow up a budget in Lower Hutt. At Lower Hutt House Inspections, we carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find problems early and help you avoid costly repairs, safety hazards, failed finance, and city stop work orders.
Our licensed and insured team brings real Lower Hutt know-how from years on roofs, in crawlspaces, and on new builds, and we keep training so our work stays sharp. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters when useful, we access tight spaces safely, and we deliver clear same day reports with photos that you can act on.
You get straight pricing, fast booking, and weekend or evening slots when needed, and we show up when we say we will. Most homes take two to three hours and the report lands the same day, we stay on the phone to walk you through the findings, we go where others don’t when safe, and our photos and clear priorities make the report easy to act on.
We offer building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that cover structure, roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, moisture, insulation, ventilation, drainage, and safety hazards for a right picture before you commit or list. People often skip the subfloor and roof space, rely only on a seller report, or miss moisture and permit issues, which can lead to loan delays, failed settlements, unsafe living conditions, insurance claim problems, and steep repair costs.
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.
