Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could 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 reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
