If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Johnsonville building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
