Common building defects in Schofields NSW

The photographs on this site come from three Schofields inspections, and they divide almost cleanly in two. Twenty four from a pre-purchase inspection: staining, clearances, cracking, a disconnected downpipe. Sixteen from a lock-up on attached housing: damp proof course, fire rated sealant, pressure flashings, coatings. Twelve from waterproofing, nearly all pinholes. That is the shape of the suburb in miniature, an established resale market beside an attached housing build market.

FAQ

Common building defects in Schofields NSW: common questions

Which service should I book?

It depends entirely on what you are buying or building. Established house or townhouse, pre-purchase. Under construction, lock-up above all else.

Is three inspections a small sample?

It is, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise. What those three do provide is unusually good coverage of the two things this suburb actually produces.

Why are pinholes so common everywhere?

Because they are a product of how membranes cure rather than of any particular builder. They turn up across every suburb where we inspect at the right moment.
