The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s well-built and your DIY specialist friend says it looks nice. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report by a certified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Woodridge

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
