Methamphetamine contamination poses serious health risks and can significantly reduce a property's value. Whether you're buying, selling, or renting, ensuring a property is meth-free is essential for safety and financial security. At AA House Checks, we provide independent, confidential meth testing services across Christchurch, Rolleston, Ashburton, and the wider Canterbury region. Our certified samplers collect samples that are analyzed by an IANZ-accredited laboratory, giving you accurate, reliable results suitable for legal and insurance purposes.
Methamphetamine residue can linger in a home long after it has been used or manufactured, contaminating surfaces, walls, carpets, and even the building’s structural materials.
Exposure to meth contamination can lead to serious health issues, including respiratory distress, skin irritation, headaches, nausea, and, in severe cases, long-term neurological and organ damage.
Beyond health concerns, a meth-contaminated home loses significant market value. Purchasing a meth-affected property can result in tens of thousands of dollars in decontamination costs, and insurance providers may refuse coverage. In cases where a property has been used as a meth lab, remediation often requires stripping the home back to its framing.
Don’t take the risk—ensure your property is safe with professional meth testing.
At AA House Checks, we use a two-step meth testing process to detect contamination. All samples are processed at an independent, IANZ-accredited laboratory, ensuring highly accurate results. Our testing meets Ministry of Health guidelines, giving you trusted and actionable information about your property.
We provide a cost-effective composite sampling method where up to 10 samples are taken and analyzed to determine if contamination is present. This method is ideal for precautionary testing when there are no visible signs of meth use.
If contamination is detected, we can conduct targeted testing to determine specific contamination levels in different areas of the property.
To ensure the property is safe before purchasing or selling.
To protect tenants and comply with rental safety standards.
To provide assurance to buyers and sellers about a property’s condition.
Many insurance companies require meth testing before providing coverage.
For added convenience, we can conduct meth testing alongside a pre-purchase house inspection.
With results available in as little as three working days, you can make quick, informed decisions about your property. If contamination is detected, we’ll provide expert guidance on the next steps, including professional remediation options.
