If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
