If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in significant issues.

This will make sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
