The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Should you really check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Wainuiomata building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
