Skipping a pre-purchase house inspection can lead to leaks, unsafe wiring, wood pest damage, or unconsented work that can void insurance and drain your budget. We carry out building inspections before you go unconditional or bid at auction, deliver clear reports with photos and moisture readings, and help you decide with confidence.
Our inspectors walk every room, roof space, and subfloor where safe access allows, run moisture readings, check drainage, insulation, and ventilation, photograph defects, and deliver a clear report within 24 hours with risk levels and repair guidance. We know Papatoetoe construction quirks, we carry proper insurance, and we stand behind our advice so you can negotiate hard or walk away with confidence.

Hidden structural movement, moisture intrusion, unsafe wiring, termites, and roof issues rarely show during a showing, and skipping or delaying an inspection can cause costly repairs, safety risks, weak bargaining, or lender concerns, with common mistakes like booking after contingencies expire or skipping pest or sewer scope making it worse. We schedule your pre-purchase house inspection before you sign or during due diligence and send a licenced inspector to check roof exterior and roof space, subfloor where accessible, interior and exterior walls, plumbing fixtures, visible electrical, ventilation, and drainage with moisture readings, thermal checks where helpful, clear photos, and a same day plain English report.
Choose us to avoid the common traps such as relying on a seller report, skipping detached structures, or ignoring recommended follow up checks that later cause finance delays, insurance refusals, or expensive repairs. Our certified and insured team has completed thousands of local building inspections, gives clear photos and practical next steps, and answers your calls after delivery.

People often book the pre-purchase house inspection after going unconditional, which kills your bargaining power and locks you into costly faults. Quick fix is to make your offer subject to inspection and confirm access in writing, for example ask the agent for a two hour window this week, and make sure the inspection covers structure, roof, plumbing, wiring, moisture, and safety with a clear written report and photos.
Use these and you spot deal breakers early, budget with real numbers, and avoid surprise work like re-roofing or re-piping that can run into thousands. You also get a clear photo report that covers structure, moisture, roof, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, and site drainage so you can negotiate with confidence or walk away clean.

A pre-purchase house inspection is a detailed check of a property’s condition done before you commit to buying. The inspection looks at structural elements, the roof, plumbing, electrical systems, and other key parts to find hidden issues–similar to what’s reviewed in many house inspections and building inspections, and some sellers even book a pre-sale house inspection. For peace of mind before you buy, reach out to South Auckland House Inspections in Papatoetoe at 0800 694 159.
