If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Kingston building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
