If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Lochain building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
