What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

Congratulations, you’ve discovered a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it’s solidly built and your DIY specialist acquaintance says it’s fine. Should you really get it checked?

If you’re purchasing a home without doing a pre purchase inspection it’s imaginable to find yourself with some costly issues that might be discovered, but you may severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report from a certified Glengarry building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. It makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
