If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
