What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it’s got everything you want. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may severely limit your ability to seek damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report issued by an qualified Lochain building inspector will identify any problems the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. This ensures house buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
