If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

It will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
