If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
