If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Ebdentown building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
