If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Broadmeadows building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

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

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
