Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without performing a pre purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting your ability to seek damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Churton Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
