If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
