Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

It’s great, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is well-built and your DIY professional friend believes it’s fine. Are you required to check it out?

If you purchase a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some expensive problems that could be identified, but you could severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house ended up with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report from a certified Woolwich building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight points that will add value. It will ensure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
