| One inspection I can recall was a modern brick and tile home on a concrete slab that was approximately 5 years old. The house had a code of compliance, but some very important issues had been overlooked. Some of the roof tiles were short of the spouting and water had been running into the soffits and framing. In other sections of the roof, the tiles extended to the front edge of the spouting and when it rained, water ran down the roof and gushed over the spouting. The surrounding grounds and paths were higher than the concrete slab and during rain this created a moat-like situation around the perimeter of the house. Obviously the prospective purchasers were delighted with the report. If they had bought the property then these issues would be discovered by a Building Inspector when they came to sell their home further down the track. This would have ended up costing them thousands of dollars to rectify the problems. | | Paul | .jpg) | | Auckland |
