Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an qualified Camborne building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
