Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Kingston building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
