If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Eastbourne building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
