Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

You’ve found the perfect property, and it appears that it ticks all the boxes. The real estate agent reckons it is solidly built and your DIY specialist friend thinks it’s good. Are you required to get it checked out?

If you’re buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase, not only could you find yourself with some expensive problems that could have been discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre purchase building inspection report issued by a qualified Timberlea building inspector will highlight any flaws the property has, indicate any potential issues and highlight areas that can be improved. It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We are looking for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
