The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Rongotai building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
