Terms & Conditions for Home Check
If you make a booking with Home Check, you agree to abide by our Terms & Conditions.
Home Check - Pre-purchase Inspection Contract (Please read carefully)
Scope:The purpose of the inspection is to identify significant Faults or defects visible at the time of the inspection. The reporting of any significant Fault or Defect is on an exceptional basis, rather than reporting on items, which are in acceptable condition for their age.
This Inspection is strictly non invasive consisting of the building elements which could be seen easily, and does not include any item that is closed in or concealed (which could include flooring, framing, plumbing, drainage, heating, ventilation, wiring) or which required the moving of anything impeding access or limiting visibility such as (floor coverings, furniture, appliances, personal property, vehicles, vegetation, debris or soil).
The customer agrees to assume all the risk, for any condition or problems that may be concealed at the time of the inspection.
Nothing will be dismantled during the inspection, and there will be no destructive testing performed. We do not test appliances, therefore we are unable to report any such items are free from defect, and no determination of their efficiency will be made.
Please note that this inspection has been conducted at a particular time of day and under those climatic conditions. Whilst we have taken every care to comment on all aspects of the dwelling, we cannot comment on past or future events that do not occur during our inspection.
There may be some historical evidence present that we have had to make assumptions for, these areas of the property will be stated in the report.
Any recommendations contained in the report are suggestion only and it shall be the responsibility of the person carrying out any works to ensure the most appropriate remedy is carried out in conjunction with any further discoveries, warranty’s, manufacturers recommendations and local authority consents.
We hope you have found the report of this property detailed and informative. The report has been formulated in this way to make for ease of reading, and for quick reference. Some photos supplied can be indicative of multiple occurrences and should not be seen in isolation.
If for any reason you have been unhappy with our service, please let us know, as this is the way we can make improvements. If you have any questions after reading this report please contact us and we will be happy to discuss any items with you.
