It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really need to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Breaker Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It will make sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built 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 even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
