If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
