Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by a qualified Grenada North building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
