The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Kelson building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.
