You get only minutes at an open home, and most flaws sit in the roof space, subfloor, or wet areas. We carry out a pre-purchase house inspection before you make an offer or during your cooling off period and deliver a correct, plain language report with photos and realistic repair ranges so you can decide with facts.
We are licensed and insured, local to Petone, and we check areas many skip, including the subfloor, roof space, and drainage clues, when safe and accessible. We deliver same day reports in plain English with photos and talk you through the findings, so you do not get caught by vague checklists, seller supplied reports, or rushed inspections.
