A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Tawa building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
