Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Newtown building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
