Healthy Homes Assessment in Christchurch

How to Get a Healthy Homes Assessment in Christchurch
A Healthy Homes Assessment checks whether your rental property meets the five Healthy Homes Standards: heating, insulation, ventilation, moisture ingress/drainage, and draught stopping. A qualified assessor inspects the property and provides a Compliance Statement outlining what already meets the standards and what upgrades are required. All rentals must comply by 1 July 2025.

What to Expect

• Full internal and external inspection by a trained technician
• Assessment of all five Healthy Homes Standards
• A detailed Compliance Statement showing what is compliant and what needs fixing
• Clear guidance on required upgrades to avoid penalties and meet legal deadlines
