Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you be left with expensive issues that may not have been identified, you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the house ended up with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Maymorn building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
