The Reason Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The agent who is selling it says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you be left with expensive issues that may not have been discovered, but you may severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home was to be stricken with an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by a certified Glengarry building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems and highlight areas that can be improved. This assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
