Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Fairfield building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to 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 costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
