Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist friend believes it’s great. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Pipitea building inspector will highlight any flaws that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate the areas where you are able to add value. This ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
