Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is possible to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This will make sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
