If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
