If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Khandallah building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Khandallah

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
