Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Mornington building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
