If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an qualified Porirua building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
