If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Boulcott building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
