A Thorough Building & Home Inspection in Whitby

Peace of Mind

We will conduct an exhaustive investigation of your property in order to provide you with an accurate as well as honest detailed written report on the building and photos of any areas that are in need of attention to assure you that the home you purchase is of the standard you expect.

A thorough inspection conducted by the Whitby building inspector usually lasts between one and half hours and 2 hours on site. However, we permit a maximum of two hours to conduct our quality pre purchase inspections in Whitby. Then, we spend a few additional hours to prepare the report.

Our reports are precise, yet easy to understand to inform you as accurately as possible about your potential new home. You put yourself in a stronger position for negotiation by being fully informed to make informed choices about property.

Don’t end up over-paying for an home which is likely to give you headaches with future issues. We are aware of the most common places problems arise, and we can give you specialist advice on how to proceed.

Depending on what the completed jobs of a home investigation finds the home inspector may allow you to use a report to aid in negotiations with the seller on price or to make repairs. Even if the report uncovers minor problems, you are able to still use it as a guideline to plan future maintenance.

Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Are you required to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Whitby building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.

Inspections of properties or houses offer an impartial review instead of what the real estate agent believes is the answer.
