Bombay sits on the hills where the Waikato meets Auckland, and the properties here are shaped by two things: elevation and the main highway running through the middle.
Elevation helps. Bombay drains better than the flats around Pukekohe or Te Kauwhata, and that removes a whole category of trouble we deal with elsewhere. What it introduces instead is exposure. Wind-driven rain hits harder up here, and roofs, flashings and cladding take more of a beating than a sheltered property would. On the higher properties, we look closely at the roof, the junctions where different materials meet, and any deck or balcony that has been added to take advantage of the view – those are the details most likely to be the source of a leak.
The housing mix is broad. There are older farmhouses and cottages dating back to when Bombay was a rural settlement, lifestyle blocks on the surrounding ridges, and newer homes in the residential pockets closer to the motorway. For the older properties, we check piles, subfloor framing and unconsented additions. For newer ones, we check drainage, settlement, and consented-versus-built.
If the property includes land or outbuildings, rural property inspections in Franklin cover additional items.
