About Us
Hidden issues can wreck a sale or blow up a budget in Manawatu. At Manawatu Building Inspections, we carry out building inspections, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection that find problems early and help you avoid costly repairs, safety hazards, failed finance, and city stop work orders.
Our team has years of hands-on building and inspection experience in Manawatu and we’re licensed, insured, and trained to follow local code on residential and light commercial work. Many reports miss roof leaks, damp in walls, poor drainage, unsafe wiring, or unpermitted work, so we check the roof by walking it when safe, scan for moisture, test outlets, open panels when allowed, and crawl the tight spaces others skip.
You get a same day photo report, repair priorities that separate urgent from later, and a call to walk you through the key risks. We don’t skip the roof or the crawl space, we scan wet areas with moisture meters, we check attics and subfloors where safe, and we are independent with fixed pricing and no referral kickbacks, which means no surprises and no pressure.
Our services cover full building inspections, targeted moisture checks, pre-purchase inspection, and pre-sale inspection, and we look at structure, roof, exterior cladding, windows, subfloor, interior, insulation and ventilation, plumbing, electrical, drainage, and outbuildings with moisture metres and thermal imaging where it helps. Common mistakes are skipping the roof or crawl space, not attending the inspection, relying on a quick checklist, or ignoring permit history, and those choices can lead to missed leaks, unsafe wiring, bank or insurance pushback, price drops at settlement, and big repair bills after you move in.
