A thorough inspection conducted by the Boulcott building inspector usually is between one half and two hours on the site. We allow maximum two hours for our standard pre-purchase inspections inside Boulcott. This is followed by a few additional hours in the preparation of the report.

Our reports are detailed yet understandable in an effort to provide you with as much information as possible about your possible new home. You are in a stronger position for negotiation by being fully aware of your options to make educated decision-making about your property.

Don’t pay too much for a household which is likely to give you headaches with potential issues in the future. We can pinpoint the areas where most problems occur, and can offer professional advice on how you can move forward.

Based on what a house inspection finds the home inspector may allow you to use a report to aid in negotiations with the seller on price or to make repairs. Even if a report only discovers minor flaws, you are able to still use it as a road map for the future maintenance.

The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Boulcott building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
