Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered an apartment that appears like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s good. Should you really have it examined?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection but you could find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a qualified Trentham building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
