If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an certified Aro Valley building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
