Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Ngauranga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
