Methamphetamine Testing in Auckland
Methamphetamine or P contamination has become a major concern for people buy and renting houses.
The only way to reliably test a home for Meth contamination is for the test samples to be analyzed by a scientific Laboratory. That is why all our test samples are Laboratory Certified.
From the Lab results it you will be able to determine if the house is completely clear of Meth traces and residue, if causal use of Meth has been smoked in the house or if the contamination is more severe from the house being used to manufacture the drug.
Auckland Homecheck is able to return to you Laboratory Certified Meth test results within two working days. Urgent test results can sometimes be returned within 24hrs on request.
This means you are quickly able to proceed with your house purchase knowing that you are buying a safe home.
Building Moisture Testing & Inspection in Auckland
A major facet of the building report is to assess the weather tightness of the house. The leaky building syndrome is a major concern for home buyers and so I use my extensive building experience and moisture testing equipment to insure your home is in good condition.
Moisture testing is carried out around the skirting boards and windows on all exterior walls using a Surveymaster moisture meter.
Our testing procedure gives you photos of the actual moisture readings in the percentage of moisture content. These results are accepted as evidence in the Weathertightness Tribunal.
The report contains references to the “moisture content” of internal finishing timber and other timber components of the building. Moisture content is given as a percentage (%). Timber considered “dry” in the building sense, will have a moisture content equal to or less than 16%. Although higher moisture readings may be acceptable in some circumstances, any readings greater than about 18% in a completed building should be investigated further.
