If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not have been identified, you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an qualified Kingsley-Chatham building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
