If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Hutt Central building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
