The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Wellington Central building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
