Home Inspection · India

The flaw you can feel,
but never see.

Grihaa is an architect-led home inspection practice. Before you pay for a flat, take possession of a new build, or sign a resale deed, we read the structure, dampness, electrical, plumbing, finishes and safety of the home — and hand you a report you can act on.

Six systems, read in a single pass.

01 — Scope

Every Grihaa inspection covers all six. There is no cheaper tier that quietly skips the one that matters.

01

Structure

Cracks, settlement, load paths, slab deflection and column integrity, read the way an architect reads a drawing.

02

Dampness & Seepage

Moisture mapping across walls, ceilings, bathrooms and terraces — India's single most expensive hidden defect.

03

Electrical

Earthing, load balance, MCB sizing, polarity, concealed wiring faults and fire risk points.

04

Plumbing

Pressure, flow, slope, drainage, concealed leaks and fixture performance across every wet area.

05

Tiling & Finishes

Hollow tiles, level tolerance, grout, joinery alignment, paint and the finish quality you paid for.

06

Safety & Compliance

Railing heights, fire egress, gas lines, glass safety and balcony risk against Indian standards.

Four steps. No noise, no upsell.

02 — Process
1

Book

Pick your city and a slot. We confirm within the hour, on WhatsApp.

2

Inspect

A certified engineer spends 3–4 hours on site with thermal, moisture and level instruments.

3

Report

A photo-annotated, priority-ranked report lands in your inbox within 48 hours.

4

Resolve

We walk you through it, and back you with the builder or seller until it is fixed.

03 — The report

A report you can read in one sitting.

Every finding is photographed, measured, ranked as critical, major or cosmetic, and costed to repair. Written in plain language, so you can forward it straight to your builder, seller or lawyer.

Started by someone who has stood on the slab.

“A home should feel solid under your hand. We exist to find the flaw you can feel but never see — while you still have the leverage to do something about it.”

Sumit Yadav founded Grihaa after watching family and friends lose lakhs to defects nobody flagged — seepage behind fresh paint, hollow tiling, earthing that was never actually connected.

He built Grihaa on three rules that have never moved: every inspection is led by a qualified engineer or architect, every finding is photographed, and we never take a single rupee from a builder, broker or repair contractor. You pay us, so we answer only to you.

Today he still personally reviews escalated reports, trains every inspector who joins, and reads the feedback from each of the twelve cities we operate in.

Reviews escalated reports

In partnership with Vivanta.

05 — Partnership

Vivanta brings the homes; Grihaa brings the scrutiny. Together we hold every residence that passes between us to one exacting standard — measured, documented and signed off before a single key changes hands.

For Vivanta residents and buyers, that means an independent inspection is built into the handover rather than bolted on afterwards, with the same report format, the same 48-hour turnaround and the same refusal to soften a finding for anybody's benefit.

Handover inspections

Every Vivanta unit inspected before possession, snag list attached.

Shared standard

One checklist, one severity scale, applied identically across cities.

Priority scheduling

Vivanta buyers get a slot within 72 hours of request.

Independent verdict

Grihaa's findings are never edited by the partner. Ever.

Questions people ask us first.

08 — FAQ
How much does a home inspection cost in India?+

Grihaa inspections start at ₹6,999 for apartments up to 1,000 sq ft and scale with carpet area. Villas and independent houses are quoted after a short call. The fee is fixed before we arrive — no surprises.

How long does a home inspection take?+

Most apartments take 3–4 hours on site. Villas and duplexes take longer. Your written report reaches you within 48 hours of the visit.

Should I inspect a new flat before possession?+

Yes. A pre-possession snagging inspection is the one moment you have real leverage with a builder. Defects flagged before handover are usually fixed free under the builder's obligation.
