If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Hutt Central building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
