Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Ngauranga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
