ENSURE YOUR RENTAL MEETS THE STANDARDS, AND KEEPS TENANTS COMFORTABLE

A HEALTHY HOMES REPORT GIVES YOU CLARITY AND CONFIDENCE

Whether you’re preparing to rent out a property or need to meet compliance deadlines, a Red LBP Healthy Homes report helps you understand exactly where your property stands.

Our licensed inspectors assess all five key standards - heating, insulation, ventilation, moisture ingress and drainage, and draught stopping, to identify any areas that may fall short.

You’ll get a detailed, easy-to-understand report that clearly outlines what meets the standards, what doesn’t, and what steps are needed to achieve full compliance.

With our experience and attention to detail, you can feel confident in taking the right steps, and avoid costly delays or non-compliance penalties.

HEALTHY HOMES INSPECTION SERVICE

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

Our Healthy Homes inspections are detailed, professional assessments carried out by Licensed Building Practitioners who understand both the construction and compliance sides of residential property. We assess each key area of the Healthy Homes Standards, giving you a clear view of where your property stands, and what, if anything, needs to be addressed.

Here’s what we assess as part of your Healthy Homes report:

bullet point Heating – is there a fixed heating source in the main living area that meets the minimum requirements?
bullet point Insulation – check for ceiling and underfloor insulation and ensure it meets the correct R-values.
bullet point Ventilation – ensure the home has openable windows in key areas and extraction fans in kitchens and bathrooms.
bullet point Moisture Ingress and Drainage – assess whether the property has effective drainage, downpipes, and ground moisture barriers.
bullet point Draught Stopping – identify any unreasonable draughts around windows, doors, floors, and chimneys.

You’ll receive a full written report with photos, plain- English commentary, and a breakdown of which standards are compliant or non-compliant, along with practical recommendations to bring the property up to spec where needed.
