If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Whakatu building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with 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 problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
