What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from an certified Birchville building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the property is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
