Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The real estate agent reckons it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you are buying a home without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by a certified Trentham building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future problems , and indicate points that will add value. It makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
