If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Bluff Hill building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
