Clarks Beach is a coastal settlement on the Manukau Harbour, and the houses are exactly what that suggests: original baches built for summer weekends, later permanent homes, and a growing number of modern builds as the area has become a full-time place to live.
Salt and sand shape inspections here. Coastal air is hard on metal – fixings, flashings, roof screws, window hardware and exterior joinery all corrode faster than they would five kilometres inland, and the corrosion is usually invisible until something fails. Sand country drains quickly but is unstable, so we check foundations and ground movement with that in mind. Combined with wind-driven rain off the harbour, the building envelope gets the most attention.
On the original baches, the reality is often that a weekend home has been converted into a permanent one without the work that requires – insulation, heating, drainage, and sometimes consent. We assess it as it actually is, not as it was built.
If a coastal property has been leaking quietly for years, weathertightness issues in New Zealand homes explain what we look for and why they rarely show indoors first.
