A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Alicetown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
