If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Tawa building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
