Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has an issue of significant importance.

This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
