If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Maungaraki building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
