If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
