If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Waiwhetu building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
