If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Stokes Valley building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
