Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Elderslea building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Elderslea

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
