If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Harbour View building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
