If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Wainuiomata building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
