If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Kenepuru building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
