About Home Inspect

Experienced, Local, and Trusted in Waikato

Home Inspect is a locally owned and operated business based in Hamilton, providing professional building inspection services throughout the Waikato region.
Every pre-purchase building inspection we complete is detailed, independent, and focused on identifying the things that matter most — structural integrity, weathertightness, and moisture detection.
Using non-invasive moisture testing equipment and drawing on years of experience in leaky-home repair and building maintenance, we identify issues that others might overlook. Our clear, easy-to-read reports outline what’s sound, what needs attention, and where potential costs may arise in the future.


Jeremy Esselbrugge - Founder and Managing Director

Picture
I have worked in the New Zealand building industry for more than 16 years, gaining extensive experience across residential and light commercial construction. After starting my building apprenticeship, I progressed to Foreman Carpenter, managing a range of new builds and renovation projects.
In 2007, I co-founded a small building company specialising in insurance repair work and home renovations. This experience provided valuable insight into how homes are built — and, more importantly, how they can fail. Working on leaky homes and water-damaged properties gave me a deep understanding of moisture detection, structural integrity, and the early signs of potential issues that can go unnoticed during everyday use.
​I am a fully qualified and licenced building practitioner offering Home Inspect client’s peace of mind when booking an inspection.
