If you are buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Te Aro building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
