If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Pauatahanui building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
