If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Melling building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
