If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an qualified Poukawa building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences.
