“Thanks to James, I was able to save thousands of dollars again after getting a building inspection done for the property I recently purchased.
From the beginning Claire explained to me what to expect, everything that I needed to know & even provided me with example report & she was extremely easy to deal with.
The comprehensive, well written report I received after the inspection was not only meticulously documented addressing all concerns with evidence so this made the entire inspection process transparent and educational.
I wholeheartedly recommend JC Consultants to anyone in need of a reliable, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented professional for their property inspections. With James you can rest assured that you will be in the hands of a true expert who takes pride in delivering top-notch service.”

“I have so much praise for these guys, they have the best customer service and have gone above and beyond for us with sound advice with two building reports done and we had very tight timeframes that they did their best to accommodate. I could easily say they are some of the best around with their comprehensive reports. Would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to know exactly what they are buying.”

In an unregulated Building Inspection Industry -
Why choose JC Consultants?
Most people don't know the building inspection industry is unregulated, meaning there is no minimum level of qualification to become a Building Inspector. This means someone can be a mechanic one day and inspect your future home the next (it has happened).
There is also the problem of soft building inspections where companies are given referrals by companies involved in the sale and some of them encourage them to paint a rosy picture of the property and carry out quick inspections where the condition of the property cannot be recorded in detail.
At JC Consultants we are:
✓ BOINZ Accredited Building Surveyor
✓ RICS Qualified
✓ 34 years experience
We are completely independent. We get no referrals from third parties like Estate Agents or Mortgage Brokers or anyone who benefits from the sale.
During the inspection, we pride ourselves on leaving no stone unturned, so you know the condition of the property in detail, so you do not have any unexpected costly bills when you buy the property.
What is involved with a Pre-Purchase Building Inspection?
A pre-purchase building inspection is all about understanding the condition of a property and if there are any red flags that you should be concerned by.
After a inspection visit, you will receive a comprehensive report that details all the different aspects of the property.
These are the key areas we cover in the inspection process:
Roofing
Roof Cavity
Interior rooms
Exterior
Foundation
Site and land
Leaks and weathertightness checks
Electrical
Plumbing and Drainage
Health & Safety
Workmanship
Pests
What is included in the Building Report?
Consider our building reports to be a manual for your house. It contains all the results of our findings from the building inspection. There will be a written component as well as photos taken at the inspection.
The report uses a traffic light system to highlight areas of major, moderate and low concern. This easy to read system clearly shows any issues that need to be addressed immediately, or if there are tasks that can be completed as part of general home maintenance.
With a building report, you get a complete understanding of the property. It allows you to negotiate with confidence as you know exactly what needs to be addressed.
We want you to have all the information you need to make an informed decision, which is why we are always on hand to help you understand the report if needed.
We also report to the NZS 4306 Residential Property Inspection Standard, so you can be assured you are receiving honest and accurate advice.
