What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is well-built and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Should you really get it checked out?

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the house has an issue of significant importance.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an qualified Wilton building inspector will reveal any issues that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
