Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from a qualified Totara Park building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to 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: 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 will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
