If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Pinehaven building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
