Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an certified Birchville building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
