Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspections
Are you looking to buy a house on the Gold Coast, Logan or Brisbane areas?
We highly recommend getting a pre-purchase plumbing inspection done before you commit to purchasing a home.
WHY?
When anyone is in the process of purchasing a home, you are generally advised to get a building and pest inspection done, so you can see any potential building or pest issues.
But what you may not know is...
Plumbing and Gas is not fully covered in a building and pest inspection.
A building inspection is taken out by a builder, not a qualified plumber and gas fitter.
With the majority of plumbing being underground and out of site plumbing usually gets over looked by a builder.
Avoid any nasty surprises.
You hear far too often of people purchasing a home only to find ONCE they move in that the plumbing has drainage issues or the gas is not compliant.
Have a complete pre-purchase plumbing inspection done by a knowledgeable, fully qualified, licensed and insured plumber and gas fitter at HUTCHINS PLUMBING & GAS
We will do a detailed plumbing and gas inspection, note down any potential plumbing or gas concerns along with a quote of what it would take to rectify them.
This could then be used to negotiate with your real estate agent.
