Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Porirua building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

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

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
