If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Whakatu building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
