What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Maoribank building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
