If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Johnsonville building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
