What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Whakatu building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance 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 check for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or 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 time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
