If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Clouston Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. 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 to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
