If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Wellington Central building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and 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 for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
