Meth testing in Hamilton
Lab-analysed sampling with results in two working days, so you know before you buy, rent out, or move in.
Meth testing in Hamilton starts from $275 + GST, with samples taken on site by a sampler holding the NZQA Unit Standards Meth Screening & Sampling Certificate and analysed by a laboratory. Results come back in two working days with a written report, and if contamination is found the report says what level. It is discounted when booked with a building inspection on the same visit.
When to test
- Before you buy. Especially if the property has been a rental, sat empty, or has a history you cannot account for.
- Between tenancies. A baseline test protects you if a dispute comes up later.
- Your insurer asks for it. Some policies require a test before cover or at claim time.
- Something feels off. Unusual staining, chemical smells, or a landlord who does not want it tested.
What is included
- Surface samples from the rooms
- Laboratory analysis
- A written report with the results in two working days

How it runs
1. Book
Online or by phone. Tell us the address, roughly how big the house is and when you need it by. Most jobs happen inside the week.
2. On site
One of our own inspectors does the work, never a subcontractor. You're welcome to come along for the last half hour and ask questions while they're still in the house.
3. Report or results
Written reports are in your inbox within 2 working days. Meth results come back in two working days and asbestos in three.
4. The phone call
Your inspector rings once it's sent and goes through what matters, what doesn't, and what to raise with the other side.
The inspector on site writes your report
The person who was in the roof space is the person who writes the report and rings you about it. No second inspector, nothing subcontracted, and reports can be explained in Mandarin as well as English.
