The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s nice. Should you really check it out?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
