If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Hongoeka building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
