The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Te Hauke building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
