If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences.
