The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you are buying a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up owning some pretty expensive issues that may not be identified, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the home has significant issues.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an qualified Kelson building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight points that will add value. This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
