Highlights

"Thankyou" to Nick for an exceptional performance from start to finish in providing a thorough building report. We rang o/s of work hours and within minutes, Nick rang back followed by arranging a mutually agreed inspection date and time with our real estate agent. Our due diligence was made easier by his report which was more thorough than a previously provided report (he found a h/w cylinder we didnt know about which was hidden under the floor, and moisture not previously

CraigNoCowboys5.0 rating

Nick was very easy to work with and got the job done very quickly with zero fuss. The report was great especially with the infrared tech. much appreciated

JoeNoCowboys5.0 rating

This is already 3rd inspection Nick does for me, and I will use him for all my future inspections. Nick is fast, very professional and reliable. His reports are up to a high standard, and gave me great assurance in the property I am looking to buy. He is a very experienced and knowledgeable building inspector, and will gladly clarify/explain any potential issue with the property, and give additional guidance about what to look for. Thank you for one more amazing job Nick!

Mek4.8 / 5 ·

We had to do a building inspection as well as a meth screening in a short amount of time. Nick was very understanding about our situation. Also, the service he proved is A+. He gave us excellent and comprehensive feedback regarding property issues. Saved us time and money.

Great experience all round - Nick was great to deal with and came back to me very quickly and liaised directly with the estate agent to organise the inspection. I received a full and detailed report the same day the inspection was carried out and was made aware of a number of issues with the property, both big and small.

I hired Nick because of super good reviews, and I'm really happy with the job he did. He did a thorough job of checking every area I had concerns about. He patiently explained possible causes of this and that, and showed that I do not have ongoing leak issues. I feel educated as well as relieved. This was well worth doing.

We'd like to recommend Nick of Cityline IR. He turned up at the agreed time and proceeded to do a thorough thermal imaging of our property as we are considering selling and wanted to be doubly sure that we have no issues with the small amount of plaster cladding on our home. He sent his comprehensive report later that evening and it has given us confidence to market our home of 18 years. Nick is very professional to deal with and gave us some good advice/information that we were unaware of. We

We had the water leaking for more than 12 months, open up the jib board for months with a few builders looking at it and still cannot diagnosis where the leak comes from. Nick spent a good half and hour and found the problem for us. Without his incredible knowledge and experience, we might have spend more money and unnecessary work. Nick, thanks for the wonderful job.

Total pro - huge experience in the industry, expert knowledge of construction materials and issues. Very reasonably priced. I have used others - wouldn't use anyone else now.

Lynn4.9 / 5 ·

absolutely delighted with the thermal imaging service.. our leak was inside a wall cavity in an old pipe we were unaware of. Nick was prompt, efficient, informative and knowledgeable. and the cost exactly as quoted. Nick quickly identified the location of the source which meant we were able to arrange a plumber same day with an exact description of the fault.

Nick was recommended to myself from Mark at Harbour Home Inspections and was just as good as I was told he would be. The IR report picked up many leak issues that could just not be seen by myself. I reckon the money spent on the report was the best money I have ever spent as otherwise I would had bought a leaky home.

Nick undertook water-leak detection at my place on 29 January 2016 afternoon. It took him less than half an hour to identify the source of the waterleak. This demonstrated his good skill and experience. In terms of communication, it's good communication from Nick. He arrived within 10 minutes of the agreed appointment - hence, it's considered punctual. Nick also emailed his report to me the same day - very impressive indeed as I expected that it would take a week. I have no reservation

Nick recently completed a weather tightness assessment on a potential property purchase for us. Nick's level of professionalism, responsiveness and communication was top shelf. The requested report was completed in double quick time. The resulting invoice was submitted and paid. All in all a very tidy business transaction and experience. I will be telling everyone I know who needs this type of service to call Nick.

Very prompt, helpful response to phone contact. Very quick to schedule visit and then provided report on same day. Report was comprehensive and clear. Information provided was exactly what we needed to plan appropriate maintenance for our home. Nick was very personable and offered some valuable suggestions and advice that went above and beyond what he had been asked for. Would highly recommend this business.

Barry5.0 / 5 ·

Excellent job,I needed a moisture check at short notice on a property I was purchasing. Nick was there the following morning having only called lunch time the previous day, I had the report in my email the same evening as the inspection. The report was very thorough and complete, Nick was a pleasure to deal with from the initial telephone conversation to keeping me informed throughout. I would recommend City Line IR to anyone, great service, great rates - what more could you ask for - check

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

Restricted building work in New Zealand must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner. Confirm they hold a current LBP licence - and check their licence class and any disciplinary history - on the LBP public register before you hire.

Check the LBP register
Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
