Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found an apartment that appears like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Trentham building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
