What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re buying a house without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Oriental Bay building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, as well as any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
