What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it’s got everything you want. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s fine. Do you really need to have it examined?

If you purchase a house without conducting a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to end up with some costly problems that could have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report from a certified Kingston building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any potential issues and highlight the areas where you can add value. This ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
