If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Woodridge building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
