Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s good. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to find yourself with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Wilton building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
