A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Whakatu building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
