If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
