North Star Building Inspection
Know What You’re Buying
Before You Buy It
50 years of real building experience. A straight-talking assessment of what a property will actually cost you — before you sign anything.
Not another tick-box survey
Most surveyors have textbook knowledge. Our inspector has spent 50 years actually building, renovating, and extending properties across Northern Ireland. He knows exactly what problems look like — and more importantly, what they cost to fix.
Before you buy, you’ll get a straight-talking written report telling you what the property will really cost you. Not vague disclaimers — actual assessments with realistic cost estimates.
Roof & Structure
Drone inspections where needed. Structural integrity, damp, drainage.
Hidden Defects
Damp checks, insulation, plumbing, electrics — the things sellers hope you miss.
Cost Assessment
Realistic repair and renovation costs so you can negotiate or walk away informed.
