Coating Inspection

Independent coating inspections focused on verifying surface preparation, environmental conditions, coating application, and dry film thickness (DFT) to ensure full compliance with project specifications and industry standards. Our inspection approach is objective, detail‑driven, and designed to protect asset owners by identifying risks early, preventing coating failures, and extending the lifecycle of critical infrastructure.

Our coating inspection capabilities include:

• Surface preparation verification (profile, cleanliness, contaminants)

• Monitoring environmental conditions (dew point, RH, substrate temperature)

• Wet film thickness (WFT) & dry film thickness (DFT) measurements

• Holiday testing/continuity testing

• Monitoring coating application techniques

• Verification of specification and manufacturer requirements

• Documentation and photographic records

• Independent third‑party reporting for asset owners

Corrosion Assessments

NZ Inspectra provides independent corrosion assessments to help asset owners understand the condition of their steel structures, identify active corrosion mechanisms, and prioritise maintenance before deterioration becomes critical. Our assessments focus on practical, real‑world insights that support long‑term asset integrity and reduce unexpected coating failures, shutdowns, and capital repair costs.

What’s Included in a Corrosion Assessment:

• Evaluation of existing coating condition and remaining service life

• Identification of corrosion types (general, pitting, crevice, galvanic, CUI indicators, etc.)

• Assessment of underlying surface breakdown and steel deterioration

• Environmental exposure and service condition review (marine, industrial, chemical)

• Photographic evidence documenting defects, corrosion areas, and risks

• Recommendations for remediation, maintenance, or re‑coating strategies

• Independent, asset‑owner focused reporting with no contractor bias

These assessments provide asset owners with the clarity needed to make informed maintenance and budgeting decisions.

Why It Matters:

A professional corrosion assessment helps prevent unplanned outages, safety risks, coating failures, and unnecessary repair spend by ensuring issues are identified early — before they escalate.

Technical Reporting

NZ Inspectra delivers clear, independent technical reports designed to support asset owners, project engineers, and maintenance planners with accurate information for decision‑making. Our reports focus on coating condition, corrosion activity, specification compliance, and the practical steps required to protect critical infrastructure and avoid costly failures.

What Our Technical Reports Include:

• Detailed findings with photographic evidence

• Assessment of coating condition, defects, and deterioration

• Identification of corrosion mechanisms and contributing factors

• Verification of specification and standard compliance

• Environmental and site condition observations

• DFT, WFT, and inspection instrument readings (where relevant)

• Recommendations for remediation, repair, or re‑coating strategies

• Independent, third‑party reporting with no contractor bias

Why Our Reporting Matters

Our reports give asset owners confidence by providing accurate, unbiased information that can be used for planning, budgeting, QA sign‑off, long‑term asset management, and compliance with industry standards. Every report is written in clear, professional language—easy for managers to read but detailed enough for engineers to act on.
