A thorough inspection conducted by a Roseneath building inspector usually takes between one and a half and two hours on site. However, we allow a maximum of two hours to conduct our standard pre-purchase inspections in Roseneath. Then, we spend a few additional hours for the preparation of the report.

Our reports are thorough, yet easy to understand in an effort to inform you as accurately as imaginable about the potential of your new home. You are in a better position to negotiate when you are fully in the know to make well-informed property decisions.

Don’t pay too much for an household that is going to give you headaches with future problems. We can pinpoint the areas where most issues occur and give you specialist tips on how to move forward.

According to what an home inspection reveals it is possible to use a report to help negotiate with the seller over the cost or to make repairs. Even if the report finds minor issues, you can still use it as a roadmap for the future maintenance.

Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Roseneath building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
