If you purchase a home without performing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
