What Are The Reason Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

It assures home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or signs that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
