What Are The Reasons Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend says it looks fine. Do you really have to check it out?

If you’re purchasing a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the home resulted in significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Bridge Pā building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
