If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a certified Kelson building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
