If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Tamatea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
