If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Horokiwi building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing.
