The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection but you could be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Kelburn building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
