If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

This ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Khandallah

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
