If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a certified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.
