If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Avalon building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This will ensure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences.
