If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might be identified, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by a certified Woodridge building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We are looking for structural issues or signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Woodridge

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
