Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Glenside building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
