Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an qualified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This will ensure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
