A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or 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: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
