Frequently Asked Questions About Home Inspections

What does a standard house inspection include?

A standard house inspection reviews all major systems and parts of the property, including the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling (HVAC), and overall structural condition. Inspectors also check doors, windows, insulation, and other accessible areas. For a detailed breakdown of what’s covered in our house inspections, building inspections, or a pre-sale house inspection, contact Christchurch Home Inspections in Merivale at 0800 846 525.

Why should I arrange a pre-sale house inspection before buying?

A pre-sale house inspection can reveal hidden problems that might turn into costly fixes later. It gives you peace of mind and can also help you negotiate the price. For expert house inspections and building inspections that protect your investment, call Christchurch Home Inspections today at 0800 846 525.

Can I be present at the house inspection?

Yes–buyers should plan to be there for the house inspection. You’ll see the home’s condition in person and can ask the inspector questions–this is exactly why buyers go to building inspections. Book a pre-sale house inspection with Christchurch Home Inspections in Merivale for clear, practical guidance–call 0800 846 525 to schedule now.

How long will a house inspection take?

The time needed for a house inspection depends on the home’s size and condition; most house inspections and building inspections take about two to four hours, and a pre-sale house inspection typically fits in that range. To book a thorough inspection with Christchurch Home Inspections, call 0800 846 525 in Merivale.

What if the inspector uncovers problems?

If the inspector uncovers problems, you’ll get a detailed report that explains the defects and how serious they are. You can use that to negotiate repairs or adjust your offer.

Do I need a house inspection for a brand-new home?
