Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Timberlea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This assures house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
