About Us
Buying, selling, or renovating without a clear picture of a property in Upper Hutt can blow your budget and stall a deal. We handle building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find issues early, keep you safe, and keep your plan moving.
Our inspectors at Upper Hutt House Inspections know Upper Hutt housing stock, common foundation and roof issues, and what local buyers, sellers, and lenders expect. We check structure, roof, exterior, interior, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, crawl spaces, attic, site drainage, and permit history where available, and we follow recognized standards and local codes with the right tools like thermal imaging and moisture meters.
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.
Our services cover full building inspections, targeted moisture checks, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection, and we look at structure, roof, exterior cladding, windows, subfloor, interior, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, electrical, drainage, and outbuildings with moisture metres and thermal imaging where it helps. Common mistakes are skipping the roof or crawl space, not attending the inspection, relying on a quick checklist, or ignoring permit history, and those choices can lead to missed leaks, unsafe wiring, bank or insurance pushback, price drops at settlement, and big repair bills after you move in.
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.
