If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Breaker Bay building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It ensures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been 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: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
