It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s good. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
