The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Kelburn building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
