The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Pukerua Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or 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 piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
