If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Wellington Central building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
