If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
