You’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Porirua building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built 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, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
