The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Pauatahanui building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
