It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Should you really check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Grenada North building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
