If you are buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
