If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report from an certified Whitby building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will make sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
