If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

It makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
