Congratulations, you’ve discovered the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Normandale building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and 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 the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
