Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. The real estate agent says it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY professional friend says it looks great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been identified, you could severely limit the ability to claim damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report issued by an certified Clive building inspector will show up any defects the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Thorough Building Inspections Clive

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
