If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Mayfair building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
