If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Waiohiki building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.
