If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Plimmerton building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

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 search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
