Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Crucial

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent says it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s nice. Should you really get it checked out?

If you are buying a house without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase it is imaginable to be left with expensive problems that could be discovered, but it could also severely limit the ability to claim damages if the home has an issue of significant importance.

A pre-purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Twyford building inspector will identify any problems that the property may have, highlight any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

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

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until 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.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
