If you are buying a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with costly problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Kingston building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
