If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
