If you are buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Wilton building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
