If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Kelson building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.
