If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Haywards building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
