What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks good. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some expensive issues that may not have been identified, it could also severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Wilton building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
