How to verify the quality of construction before buying a house

Бизнес 16+

Buying a new house may be a once in a lifetime transaction. Your  House for sale in Islamabad  is where you make all the memories. But the most important thing to remember is that it should be safe in all aspects. One such aspect is of construction. Buying an already built house may result in getting a bad deal in terms of construction performed. So, when you go out to look for a new house, how would you be able to tell the construction quality? Well, let’s look at some tips.

 

  • Inspect the house walls and roof for any signs of cracks. The cracks can either be major or minor. If major cracks are present, then refuse the deal as it may mean lack of good quality material used. If the cracks are minor, let the current owners repair it before you step into that house. 
  • Look for signs of dampness or water seepage on the roof and walls. It may mean that the condition of the inside material like the bricks might be deteriorating. It could also mean that there is an issue with the overall water system of the house. If you find any such indication, make sure to bring it to the notice of the owner.
  • Check for the flow of water through different areas of the house. This would provide you with an indication of the material that has been used for the water system. If the pressure is normal then great. Low pressure may mean that there is some blockage or leakage through the pipes. Such leakage would not only cause water problems but would also weaken the overall structure of the house by dampness. There may be a time soon when you would be inspecting your own house. Maybe there is an ad in the paper saying “Bahria Enclave Islamabad house for sale”. It could be your calling to a new house.
  • Checking the thickness of the walls is essential. This is an important step. For a single storey house, this may not better too much. But for a multi-storeyed house, it would matter greatly as the ground structure has to support the upper ones. Also, the walls are your protection against natural disasters such as an earthquake. So make sure that the walls are of an acceptable thickness.
  • Make sure that the paint on the walls and outside is of good quality and uniform. There are no visible cracks or issues. The outside paint is the one that is going to protect the walls and roof through its properties. If the paint is very old and deteriorating, then get the owner to finish a new coat before moving in otherwise you would be the one bearing the costs.
  • Ask the owner for some details and proof regarding the material used. Most people would have such details that would give you an indication whether the quality of materials is top-notch or not. You are the one spending money so there shouldn’t be any hesitation in asking. This would also build a good relation between the two parties and maybe you would get more insight and details.

 

All it takes is an open and brain to inspect the house properly and a little knowledge to catch any defects in the construction. You are the one who would be spending all your time there. Why not invest in something durable and strong.
