If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Haywards building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
