Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection it is possible to end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Timberlea building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the 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 advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
