It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Heretaunga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
