If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
