If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Wadestown building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
