When purchasing a home or commercial property, an of the important actions to take is obtaining a Building Inspection. Whether it's a first home or investment opportunity or a commercial building, knowing the true condition of the structure gives buyers the assurance they require to make the right decision.
At JC Consultants, we specialize in producing independent building reports that arm you with the facts--free of external influences or biases. Our work aligns to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, which ensures that every inspection meets industry-recognized standards for precision and accuracy.
Why Building Inspections Matter
Pre-purchase building inspections serve as an assurance against unanticipated expenses or structural problems. An inspection that is well-designed can reveal red flags early--such as leaks, poor workmanship, foundation issues, or inadequate drainage--that might otherwise go unnoticed during the routine inspection.
Following our thorough site inspection the clients receive a building report, which serves as a guide for their property. These reports are structured for clarity, using the traffic light system to identify high, medium or low risks, and are supplemented with photographs that highlight key conclusions.
What Our Inspections Cover
Our inspections do not leave any area unchecked. We evaluate:
* Roofs and roof cavities
* Interior rooms and finishes
* Foundation and subfloor
* Drainage and plumbing systems
* Safety and electrical standards
* Weathertightness vulnerability
* Exterior the cladding and site condition
The evidence is that of damage or pests
* Workmanship and structural integrity
This thorough checklist makes sure that our clients are aware of every aspect of the property prior to them deciding to make a decision to.
Commercial Building Inspections
Our services extend over residential buildings. For investors or business owners, a commercial building inspection is essential to identifying concerns or risks that could affect operations or increase the value. These inspections are tailored to meet the unique demands of commercial real estate and often include health and safety considerations relevant to tenants and staff.
Weathertightness Inspections
In the climates where water intrusion is a concern, weathertightness inspections are crucial. The focus of these inspections is to identify areas vulnerable to leaks or dampness, which can cause mold growth, timber decay, and serious long-term damage if they are not dealt with promptly.

Our inspectors are qualified members of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) as well as the Building Officials Institute of New Zealand (BOINZ). With over 33 years of experience in the industry we bring professionalism and attention to detail and a deep understanding of technology for each inspection.
