If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to end up with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major 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, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
