If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Hastings Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
