If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Kelson building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built 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, when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
