Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages in the event that the house ended up with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report by an certified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
