It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Hataitai

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
