Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Pukerua Bay building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
