A pretty special milestone across the Red LBP network, and with that number continuing to climb every day, itโ€™s one weโ€™re incredibly proud of.

Every one of those reviews represents a client who trusted one of our inspectors with an important part of their property journey.

Itโ€™s a real testament to the care our inspectors across New Zealand put into looking after their clients, from that first conversation right through to the inspection, the report and any questions that come afterwards.

A huge thank you to our team, and to every client who has taken the time to leave us a review. โค๏ธ

A little rust is one thing. Corrosion eating through the metal around a roof pe*******on is another.

The problem with your roof? Most of the time, you canโ€™t see whatโ€™s happening up there from the ground. ๐Ÿ‘€

Rust never sleeps, so donโ€™t sleep on your home maintenanceโ€ฆ

Cold winters, high rainfall and high humidity

Often, itโ€™s not one single issue, but a combination. Identifying the source of the moisture is just as important as dealing with the mould you can seeโ€ฆ

Something smelled a little ripe in this laundry, and it didnโ€™t take long to see why...

Musty smells, staining and visible mould can all be clues that moisture is getting where it shouldnโ€™t. When the ceiling starts resembling blue cheese, itโ€™s clearly been maturing for a while. ๐Ÿคข

Good inspectors are part builder, part detective and part bloodhound. ๐Ÿ‘ƒ

This apron flashing has been surface-fixed to the wall, with the junction relying on sealant to help keep water out.

The problem? Sealant can shrink, deteriorate and separate over time, and you can already see signs of that happening along this junction.

Apron flashings play an important role in managing water where a roof meets a wall. Correct detailing provides layers of protection, rather than relying heavily on a surface-applied sealant to maintain weathertightness. ๐Ÿ’ง

Damaged or missing soffit linings donโ€™t just look rough, they can leave an easy way into your roof space for birds and other unwanted visitors. ๐Ÿฆ

A little maintenance now can stop bigger problems finding their way in.

Certain areas of a home are more vulnerable to moisture.๐Ÿ’ง

Thatโ€™s where an inspectorโ€™s experience matters, knowing where to focus testing and what signs to look for along the way. ๐Ÿ‘€

Testing the right areas is what turns readings into facts, not guesswork.
