What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Pauatahanui building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

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

Thorough Building Inspections Pauatahanui

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
