If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Whakatu building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
