The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

Excellent, you’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend thinks it’s fine. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an qualified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
