What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

You’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a pre purchase inspection it is possible to end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Gracefield building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you are able to add value. It makes sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major 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 building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed 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 even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
