Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This will make sure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure 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

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
