The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you are buying a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by an certified Kingston building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Kingston

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

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

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
