What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Lyall Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
