If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

This will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
