Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found one that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend believes it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from an certified Frimley building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future issues, and identify the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

The property is inspected and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good 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.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
