A Comprehensive Building & Home Inspection in Birchville

Peace of Mind

We will carry out an in-depth examination of your home in order to provide you with an accurate and honest detailed written report on the building that includes photos of any issues for you to be sure that the home you purchase has the standard you expect.

The thorough inspection performed by the Birchville building inspector usually is between one half, and two hours on the site. However, we allow a maximum of two hours for our standard pre-purchase inspections inside Birchville. Then, we spend a few additional hours for the preparation of the report.

Our reports are thorough, yet easy to understand in an effort to inform you as clearly as possible regarding your prospective new home. You are in a better position to negotiate in the event that you are completely aware of your options to make educated property decisions.

Don’t end up over-paying for the home that’s going to give you headaches with potential issues in the future. We are aware of the most common places problems happen, and will give you specialist advice on how you can proceed.

Based on what the completed jobs of a house inspection uncovers depending on the findings, you might be able to utilise a report to help you negotiate with the seller about price or to make repairs. Even if a report detects minor issues, you can still use it as a roadmap for future maintenance.

The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Birchville building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
