It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert friend says it looks fine. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Haywards building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
