The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Ngauranga building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
