Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Birchville building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
