Why 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’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report by a certified Woodridge building inspector will show up any defects that the property may have, highlight any future issues, and identify areas to add value. It will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
