Megahedge vs a general home inspection

A full home inspection covers civil, electrical and plumbing items across the flat. A Megahedge inspection goes deep on one question: where is the damp and where is it coming from. Here is when to book which.

Fair is fair

When a general home inspection is enough.

  • You want electrical, carpentry and finish items checked too
  • The flat is old and you have concerns beyond water
  • You can book both: a general inspection for everything, ours for the walls

Questions buyers ask

Ask an inspector

Can I book both?

Yes. Many buyers do, especially for older resale flats.

Do you check structure?

No. Structural safety needs a structural engineer.

Do you name other inspection companies?

No. We compare types of inspection, not companies.
