Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Wainuiomata building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
