Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Wilton building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

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

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
