If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

This will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
