What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Heretaunga building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home 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 piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
