Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of 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 pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
