If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Haywards building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
