If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Taradale building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
