If you’re buying a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in significant problems.

This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

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

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
