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

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
