If you’re buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Fairfield building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
