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

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Normandale building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built 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 pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
