If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Grenada Village building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
