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.
Side by side
Topic by topic.
| Topic | A general home inspection | Megahedge |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Civil, electrical, plumbing, finishes | Damp and seepage, plus the snags that let water in |
| Moisture readings on every wall | Often spot checks | Every wall, ceiling and skirting against a dry reference |
| Thermal imaging | Varies | Every surface, confirmed with a meter |
| Likely source and responsibility | Varies | Source stated with reasoning; who usually fixes it explained |
| Defect Claim Pack and Monsoon Watch | Not usually | Available |
| Electrical and fire safety | Usually covered | Not covered |
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
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.
