If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity 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 any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
