What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly built and your DIY professional friend says it looks nice. Do you really have to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior purchase inspection, not only could you end up owning some pretty costly problems that could have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house has a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Woolwich building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate 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 the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
