Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Pipitea

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
