If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Wellington Central building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

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 and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
