If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Ascot Park building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
