Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Pukahu building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture 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 home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
