The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Waitangirua building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
