Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Important

If you purchase a house without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase and you find yourself with some costly problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your ability to seek damages if the home resulted in significant issues.

A pre purchase building inspection report prepared by an certified Ascot Park building inspector will highlight any flaws the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any future problems , and indicate areas that can be improved. It makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
