Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages if the house was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Melling building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate the areas where you can add value. It assures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
