Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Horokiwi building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
