If you are buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Oriental Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
