If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Haywards building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
