If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant issues.

This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
