If you’re buying a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Hataitai building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

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 check for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Hataitai

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
