If you purchase a house without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
