If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Melling building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
