Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Hutt Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
