If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Newtown building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or 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.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
