Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a qualified Plimmerton building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
