If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
