If you are considering buying a house or commercial property among the critical steps in the process is obtaining a Building Report. If it's a home for the first time, an investment opportunity, or a commercial facility knowing the actual state of the building gives buyers the assurance they require to take the proper steps.
At JC Consultants, we specialize in providing independently-written building documents that provide you with the truth, without external influences or biases. Our work aligns to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, which guarantees that the inspections are in line with industry standards for precision and accuracy.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Inspections of buildings prior to purchase serve as a safeguard against unexpected costs or structural issues. A thorough inspection will reveal warning signs early, such as leaks or poor workmanship, foundation issues, or poor drainage that would otherwise go unnoticed in a routine viewing.
Following our thorough site inspection, clients receive a builders report that acts as a guide for their home. The reports are formatted for clarity, using a traffic light system to show high, medium or low issues, and are supplemented with photographs to show key conclusions.
What Our Inspections Cover
Our inspections do not leave any area unchecked. We evaluate:
* Roofs and roof cavities
* Interior finishes and rooms
* Foundation and subfloor
* Drainage and plumbing systems
* Electrical and safety standards
* Weathertightness issues
* Exterior the cladding and site condition
The evidence is that of pests or damage
* Structural integrity and worker's espionage.
This thorough checklist makes sure that our clients understand every detail of the property before they sign a contract.
Commercial Building Inspections
Our services go over residential buildings. For investors or business owners an inspection of commercial buildings is crucial to identify concerns or risks that may impact operations or value. The inspections are designed to meet the specific requirements for commercial properties. They often include health and safety concerns that affect tenants and staff.
Weathertightness Inspections
In areas where the intrusion of moisture is a major concern, weathertightness inspections are crucial. These evaluations focus on identifying the areas susceptible to leaks and dampness, which could lead to the growth of mold, decay of timber and even permanent damage if they are not dealt with promptly.
Unmatched Independence and Professionalism
What distinguishes JC Consultants apart is our total independence. We are not associated with brokers, real estate agents, or developers. This ensures that our findings are always honest and accurate and based on the property's condition.
Our inspectors are qualified members of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Building Officials Institute of New Zealand (BOINZ). With over 33 years of industry experience, we bring integrity and attention to detail and an in-depth technical understanding for each inspection.
