If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
