If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Melrose building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
