If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
