If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by an qualified Island Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
