Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Maoribank building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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 cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
