If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Woodridge building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
