What Are The Reasons 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 solidly constructed and your DIY expert friend says it looks nice. Do you really need to get it checked?

If you’re buying a house without performing a pre purchase inspection and you be left with costly issues that might have been discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages in the event that the home resulted in a significant issue.

A pre-purchase inspection report from an certified Lochain building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, as well as any future problems and highlight the areas where you can add value. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
