Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Crucial

You’ve found a property that looks like it has all the right boxes ticked. A real estate agent believes it is sturdy and solid, while your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s great. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without performing a pre inspection prior to purchase, not only could you end up with some costly issues that might have been identified, you may be severely limiting the possibility of pursuing damages in the event that the house has significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a certified Clouston Park building inspector will reveal any issues the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future issues, and identify points that will add value. This assures house buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
