If you are considering buying a house or commercial property, among the crucial actions to take is obtaining a Commercial Building Inspection. If it's a home for the first time or an investment opportunity or commercial property knowing the condition of the structure gives buyers the confidence needed to make the right decision.
At JC Consultants, we specialize in providing independent building reports that arm you with facts that are free of any bias or influence from outside. Our work aligns to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, which ensures that every inspection meets industry-recognized standards in terms of accuracy and precision.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Inspections of buildings prior to purchase serve as an assurance against unanticipated costs or structural issues. An inspection that is well-designed can reveal warning signs early, such as leaks or workmanship issues foundation problems, insufficient drainage, which could otherwise be overlooked during a routine viewing.
After our comprehensive site visit, clients receive a builders report, which serves as a reference guide for their home. These reports are structured to be clear, and use the traffic light system to show high, medium or low issues and are accompanied by photographs that highlight key conclusions.
What Our Inspections Cover
Our inspections do not leave any area unchecked. We evaluate:

Commercial Building Inspections
