If you are considering buying a house or commercial property among the crucial steps in the process is obtaining a Building Inspection. It doesn't matter if it's your first home or investment opportunity or a commercial building knowing the state of the building gives buyers the assurance they require to make the right decision.
We are JC Consultants, we specialize in providing independent building reports that provide you with the facts--free of external influences or biases. Our work aligns to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, ensuring the inspections are in line with industry standards for precision and accuracy.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Building inspections prior to purchase are a safeguard against unexpected costs or structural issues. A well-executed inspection can identify issues early, like leaks or workmanship issues, foundation issues, or insufficient drainage, which could otherwise be overlooked during an inspection routine.
After our comprehensive site visit our clients are provided with a builder report which acts as a guide for their property. The reports are formatted to be clear, and use a traffic light system to indicate moderate, high or low issues and are accompanied by photographs to show key findings.
What Our Inspections Cover
Our inspections do not leave any area unchecked. We evaluate:
* Roofing and roof cavities
* Interior finishes and rooms

There is evidence of pests or damage

This thorough checklist makes sure that our clients understand every detail of the property prior to them deciding to commit.
Commercial Building Inspections
Our services go beyond residential properties. For business owners and investors, a commercial building inspection is essential to identifying risks or compliance issues that may impact operations or the value.
