If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
