Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
