If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Eastbourne building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
