A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Pinehaven building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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 siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
