If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Oriental Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
