If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Kingston building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
