If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Putorino building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
