If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Porirua building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
