If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection it’s possible to end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Putorino building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
