If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Clouston Park building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It will make sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
