What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s great. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re buying a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s possible to end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be identified, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a qualified Kilbirnie building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
