Our Services

NZ Inspectra provides independent coating inspection, corrosion assessments, and technical reporting to support asset integrity across New Zealand’s industrial, infrastructure, and council‑managed assets. Our inspections are carried out objectively, following industry standards, and focused on delivering clear, reliable information that asset owners can act on.

Coating Inspection

Independent coating inspection focused on ensuring coating systems are applied correctly, perform as intended, and comply with specifications and industry standards.

What We Verify

  • Surface preparation (profile, cleanliness, contaminants)

  • Environmental conditions (dew point, RH, substrate temperature)

  • Wet Film Thickness (WFT)

  • Dry Film Thickness (DFT) using calibrated gauges

  • Holiday / continuity testing

  • Coating application techniques

  • Specification and manufacturer compliance

Deliverables

  • Photographic evidence

  • Defect identification

  • Clear pass/fail criteria

  • Recommendations for corrective actions

  • Independent third‑party reporting for asset owners

Corrosion Assessments

Corrosion assessments provide asset owners with a clear understanding of condition, deterioration mechanisms and risk exposure.

What’s Included

  • Coating condition evaluation

  • Remaining service life indication

  • Corrosion type identification (pitting, crevice, galvanic etc.)

  • CUI indicators and early‑stage detection

  • Environmental exposure assessment (marine, industrial, chemical)

  • Identification of underlying surface breakdown

  • Photographic documentation

Why It Matters

Corrosion assessments reduce unplanned outages, coating failures and maintenance spend by identifying issues early and prioritising intervention.

Technical Reporting

Clear, evidence‑based reporting designed to support engineers, project managers and asset owners.

What You Receive

  • Standards‑aligned documentation

  • Defect classification

  • Failure mode identification

  • Risk and priority guidance

  • Recommendations for remediation

  • Traceable measurements and environmental data

Our reporting approach enables better maintenance planning, budget justification and long‑term asset decision‑making.
