If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Takapuwahia building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
