Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Tamatea building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
