If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Gracefield building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
