If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Seatoun building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
