Why Are Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Vital

Excellent, you’ve found a property that looks like it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it’s solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but it could also severely limit your options for claiming damages if the home was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase building inspection report issued by an certified Woolwich building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems and highlight areas to add value. It ensures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or signs that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
