About Us
Hidden defects and permit issues can wreck a sale or stick you with costly repairs in Waikato. Waikato House Inspections runs thorough building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection with same day reporting so you can plan, price, and negotiate with confidence.
Our inspectors at Waikato House Inspections know Waikato 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 straight pricing, on time arrival, weekend or next day slots, and real support during repair talks or closing so you can act with confidence. Most problems we see come from skipping a pre-purchase inspection, relying only on seller disclosures, choosing the cheapest inspector, not attending the walk through, or not booking a reinspection after repairs, which leads to surprises and delays that can trigger lender pushback, insurance problems, or a stop work order.
We inspect roof, foundation, structure, exterior, interior, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling, insulation and ventilation, attic and crawlspace, drainage, and accessible site conditions, and we can add termite, sewer scope, and mold screening on request. For best results in Waikato, book early in your option or attorney review window, make sure utilities are on, attend the inspection, and avoid common mistakes like skipping the roof or crawlspace, ignoring permit history, or not getting a reinspection after repairs.
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.
