If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Porirua building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Porirua

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
