Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Takapuwahia building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
