A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Ngauranga building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
