If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Horokiwi building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
