The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY specialist friend says it looks great. Do you really have to get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by an certified Wilton building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
