Why You Should Do Meth Testing

Meth (P) contamination is a serious risk to your investment. Healthy Homes NZ offers effective, professional testing to ensure your property is safe and habitable. For landlords, it's best practice to test between tenancies to avoid costly claims if meth is discovered later. Regular testing prevents the stress, confusion, and high costs associated with decontamination.

What happens if you don’t?

The financial implications of not meth testing can well outweigh the cost of routine testing. If a tenant is put into a property that is deemed ‘uninhabitable’ due to meth contamination levels, they can be entitled to their rent being reimbursed for the length of time they’ve lived in the house, replacement costs for their belongings and the cost of temporary accommodation.

"Healthy Homes NZ completed our Healthy Home assessment for our rental property (which is currently still occupied by us). The assessor was incredibly professional and helpful, and worked around the current state of the home with some cosmetic reno's still mid-way. We had a couple of things we needed to remedy which were easy to complete with the portal provided by Healthy Homes NZ. Would highly recommend"

FAQs

What happens if I don’t do meth testing?

The financial implications of not meth testing can well outweigh the cost of routine testing. If no pre-tenancy test was completed and meth is found, this often results in a claim against the landlord or property manager. If a tenant is put into a property that is deemed ‘uninhabitable’ due to meth contamination levels, they can be entitled to their rent being reimbursed for the length of time they’ve lived in the house, replacement costs for their belongings and the cost of temporary accommodation.

Suspicion of Meth Production or Contamination?

If there's suspicion of meth production or contamination, a more thorough screening may be required. While it costs a little more, it provides a detailed assessment needed to create a plan to restore the property to habitable levels. The HHNZ team can discuss this option with you at the time of booking.
