If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Island Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
