2 [Edition datE] 17 Your guide to all things Real Estate in the Selwyn District Good design ensures a weatherproof home The leaky homes crisis of the early 2000s was borne from a relaxation in building design and emphasis on self-regulation during the 1980s and 1990s. With a more open interpretation of building standards some poor designs crept in. Official response to the leaky home crisis has been to tighten up building by-laws with more thorough building inspections introduced. The consent process was upgraded again after the earthquakes. Houses are now built to a higher quality and are generally more structurally sound than ever before. Every new home is thoroughly inspected at significant stages during the build. These are listed on the consent document and include checking before a concrete slab is poured to ensure foundations (including placement of reinforcing steel) are prepared as per their design; that frame and roof fixings, and all flashings around windows are in place; and ensuring insulation is installed. All tradespeople working on a residential home must now be under the responsibility of a licensed building practitioner and each trade must sign off the work they do, via the official PS3 documents that the approving Council requires for building consent. While Canterbury’s drier climate translates to less likelihood of a home developing leaks some buildings have experienced damage from the elements over time. It therefore makes sense to choose a house design which will cope with extreme weather conditions, while also looking good in years to come. In relation to the roof of a home, more frequently applied are hip, gable and skillion roofing styles. Hip and gable roofs with a reasonable overhang of the soffit, help protect the walls and prevent water from penetrating between the cladding and house frames. With skillion roofing, a pitch of upwards of 10 degrees is a better option as lower pitches have the potential to be problematic so require thought and detail in their design. Flat or low pitch roofs do need to be installed correctly so it is best to engage a professional who has the expertise and experience for the job. Other issues with the roof can be internal gutters which can accumulate rain water if spouting is blocked causing it to bank up, pool and potentially penetrate the roof cavity thereby damaging the ceiling, walls and other aspects of the structure. Fixing snow straps or gutter guard to the roof spouting will help prevent buckling should there be a heavy snow storm, a feature worth installing if building in Selwyn. The use of quality cladding and flashings (a waterproof strip around windows and doors) is not only peace of mind but also ensures your home looks good going forward. All claddings are now required to be on a cavity system. This is an air gap between the timber framing and cladding, usually 20mm or 40mm for brick cladding. When choosing your new home’s design, discuss how it might be made more weather resistant. Hip & gable roofs with a good soffit help protect the walls of a house. Fix snow straps to roof spouting. Involve a professional if choosing a flat or low pitch roof. Skillion roofing with a pitch of 10° is better.
