If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Normandale building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
