Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY professional acquaintance says it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not be discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages if the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a qualified Wilton building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It will make sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
