If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

This assures home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.
