Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Trentham building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
