Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Ngauranga building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
