If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Titahi Bay building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the 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 pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
