If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Porirua building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
