Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some costly issues that might be identified, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with significant issues.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Days Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
