What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Te Hauke building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
