It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Wilton building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
