If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a qualified Elderslea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
