If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Glengarry building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
