Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

It’s great, you’ve found an apartment that appears like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend thinks it’s fine. Should you really have it examined?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you end up with some costly issues that might have been discovered, but it could also severely limit the possibility of pursuing damages if the house resulted in an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Frimley building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. It will ensure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the 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.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
