If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
