What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Hutt Central building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re 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: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
