If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a certified Kingston building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
