If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Porirua building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property 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 damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on 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 can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
