The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Taita building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. This makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
