If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

This will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
