The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Titahi Bay building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
