If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an qualified Khandallah building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
