What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY expert friend believes it’s nice. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Whitby building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

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 house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming 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 might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
