If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Napier building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
