If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

This ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
