Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY expert friend says it looks great. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Melling building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
