Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

If you’re purchasing a house without conducting a pre inspection prior to purchase it’s imaginable to be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report by a qualified Glenside building inspector will reveal any issues the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It will ensure that house buyers do not encounter unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the property is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
