What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Boulcott building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
