If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home ended up with a significant issue.

This assures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
