If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Rongotai 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 makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
