The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from an qualified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred 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

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
