What you’re booking A non-invasive visual condition inspection of one existing deck, pergola, or deck with its associated pergola at one Auckland property. The $195 fee includes GST, up to 60 minutes on site and a photographed written report within 3 working days.
We email the reviewed photographed report within 3 working days after the inspection, excluding applicable public holidays. Any repair estimate is indicative and subject to scope, access and concealed conditions; repairs require a separately approved quote.
Inspection limits, access and cancellation We inspect safely accessible visible components and record defects, limitations and recommended next steps. This does not include opening up the structure, removing decking, excavation, engineering design or certification, consent approval, invasive testing or repairs. Concealed foundations and inaccessible framing may need a separately agreed investigation.
Arrange owner permission and safe access. Tell us about known hazards and clear furniture or stored items where practical. Unsafe or inaccessible areas are recorded as not inspected. Larger or multiple structures and specialist investigations need an agreed scope and fee before booking.
Cancel or reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice for a full refund or free change. For later cancellations or missed access, only a reasonable amount reflecting actual loss may be retained. Weather or safety rescheduling is free. If TrickyBuilds cannot deliver the agreed service, choose a new appointment or a full refund.
The report records conditions observed on the inspection date for the named customer and agreed purpose. It does not guarantee hidden conditions or certify legal compliance. No repairs or additional charges are authorised by this booking. These terms do not exclude rights or remedies under the Consumer Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act.
I agree to the inspection scope and terms above, including the inspection limitations, access arrangements and cancellation terms. Terms version: 2026-11-04-deck-inspection-v1
