Health Risks
Although buildings are fixed structures they can change shape over time due to exernal variables. If your house contains Asbestos and is left un-managed for many years, you could be exposing yourself to toxic levels.
Exposure to lead-based paint – commonly seen in properties built before 1978 – can cause headaches, high blood pressure, joint pain and many other adverse health issues.
Infestation of both vermin and insects can make your future property uninhabitable. Such problems may not be visible at first glance. BPPI guarantee to find any such habitation.
BPPI has strict quality controls with regards to the water in your desired property. By looking at the quality and age of piping, I can recommend within my report if certain parts may need replacing.
Accident Potential
Faulty Electrics within the home can cause death and/or serious injury to yourself and visitors of your property. Brisbane Pre-Purchase Inspections take this very seriously and will notify you of any potential threat.
Dilapidated building work may not be obvious on the outer surface of a property. With a lifetime wealth of experience in the industry, I will report all building work deemed to have fallen below the BPPI quality check level, however large or small.
It is a basic requirement that the stairs in your house are safe and reliable for all users. Inconsistent steps and uneven edges can lead to tripping. BPPI looks at all aspects of the structure of stairs.
Unapproved/Non Compliant Building Work
Many properties have un-managed extensions carried out without permission. Guidelines and standards may not have been upheld when work of this type has been done. This can be used as a huge bargaining tool as a potential buyer if you are aware of such work. My report will also let you know of any work which may be incomplete.
Structural Failings
Damp is a huge problem for buildings, it leaves an odour and is unhygienic. Mould will grow in places with a lot of moisture, such as around leaks in roofs, windows, or pipes, or where there has been flooding. It is highly likely the occupant of a damp home will suffer with some sort of respiratory problem as a direct result.
