A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Ngaio building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
