Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a qualified Melling 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. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure 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 or signs that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
