What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to check it out?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Takapuwahia building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt 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, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
