If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
