FAQ

Pre-Purchase Building Inspections in Schofields: common questions

What does staining under a kitchen tell you?

That water has been where it should not, and the question is whether it still is. We look for the source rather than just noting the mark, because a historic leak already fixed and an active one are very different purchases.

Is a disconnected downpipe serious?

It is cheap to fix and expensive to ignore. Roof water discharging at the base of a wall instead of into the system saturates the ground exactly where you least want it, and on reactive clay that drives movement.

How do you handle cracking?

By measuring the width and reading the pattern against the categories the standard sets, so the report says what it is rather than calling everything major or everything minor.
