If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Normandale building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
