The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is well-built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with costly issues that might be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Melrose building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. This makes sure that house buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
