If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Kelburn building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
