If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Takapuwahia building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
