If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house has significant issues.

This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
