The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found a property that looks like it meets all the criteria. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection it is imaginable to end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report by a qualified Kelburn building inspector will show up any defects the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

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