Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
