A house inspection found 111 problems worth 3 million yuan! Here are 8 pitfalls of house inspection!

Some time ago, one of our colleagues bought a new house, and with the help of the house inspector, dozens of problems were found!

There are many such cases. Recently, a house worth 3 million yuan was found to have 111 problems during the house inspection.

If the property is handed over before inspection, not only will the developer not be held responsible for solving the problem, it may also turn into major hidden dangers that are difficult to remedy after people move in!

Therefore, we have specially provided you with a house inspection tutorial in this issue. Whether you are taking delivery of a new house or renovating an old house, you can take a look at it to avoid pitfalls and take preventive measures.

First, let's take a look at what pitfalls our colleagues have stepped on

• ①The surface of the wallpaper is uneven. Turning on the spotlight, you can see the ripples on the wallpaper due to the unevenness;

• ②The wallpaper surface is uneven and has raised particles.

• ③There are cracks in the ceiling, which may cause the wall to fall off later if not handled.

• ④ The wallpaper is curling up and will slowly fall off if it is not repaired in time.

So many problems were found on the wall alone! It seems that we must be careful during the inspection!

Some friends must have asked, what aspect should I focus on?

Don’t worry, the tutorial is here:

The next step is to inspect the doors and windows.

If they are not installed properly, it will not only affect the appearance, but also affect the living environment, such as allowing rainwater to seep in and causing mold on the walls.

Our colleague's house had a lot of problems with the doors and windows.

• ① The door leaf of the entrance door is seriously damaged, and the door frame is damaged, which greatly affects the appearance;

• ②The door handle of the second bedroom is loose;

• ③The black plastic strip of the window is detached or damaged, which may cause water leakage.

It’s really a headache!

However, we can also conduct inspections from the following aspects before handing over the house and make timely repairs:

Floor finishing projects are also a major area of ​​problems during house inspections.

For example, my colleague found the following problem

• ① The balcony floor tiles are hollow and prone to cracking over time;

• ② There are many cracks and scratches on the kitchen door sill, which needs to be polished and repaired later, otherwise the stains will be very obvious;

• ③There are many stains on the floor tiles that need to be cleaned.

• ④ The wooden floor of the bedroom is loose and undulating, and it makes noises when you walk on it.

Therefore, careful inspection of the ground is also very necessary. The tutorial is as follows:

The kitchen is very functional, with various electrical appliances, water supply and drainage equipment, cabinets, etc., so there are many items to check.

The following aspects should be emphasized during acceptance:

When inspecting, you need to look more at the corners, such as whether there are any missing screws inside the cabinet or whether there is water leakage under the sink.

In addition to looking at it more, you can also try it out a few times, such as pressing the basin to see if it is stable, and opening and closing the cabinet door to see if it is smooth.

▲ You can see that there are scratches on the sink in my colleague’s home.

Like the kitchen, the bathroom is a very functional place, so it is naturally prone to more problems.

Let’s take our colleague’s home as an example.

• ① The floor drain is misplaced, resulting in poor drainage;

• ② The shower room seal is not sealed well, water leaks when using the shower head, and needs to be replaced;

• ③The bathroom cabinet is damaged.

Therefore, when accepting the bathroom facilities, you should check them carefully and debug them more:

The circuit is also an essential part of the test. The socket in my colleague’s house was found to have problems (too difficult…)

During testing, we can also use professional instruments, such as a phase meter, to help us check whether the "neutral, live, and ground" wires of the socket are correct, whether there is any leakage, etc.

The specific acceptance methods are as follows:

It is worth noting that when checking the low-voltage box, you need to confirm whether there is an optical modem socket, which is easily overlooked.

The above is a large part of the inspection, but in fact these details should not be ignored.

After completing the above house inspection steps, the last step is indoor air testing.

After all, we breathe the air at home every day. If the formaldehyde or TVOC exceeds the standard and harms our body, it would not be worth it.

Like the fully furnished house delivered by the fan below, the developer used some density boards.

Some are even moldy.

▲ Density board is a type of board that is very likely to exceed the formaldehyde standard

If you don’t test it, you will never know whether those beautiful houses will harm your body.

▲ Conversation between fans and us

Therefore, we always recommend that you test the indoor air before moving in.

If you find this house inspection knowledge useful, you can forward it to your friends to help more people avoid pitfalls!

Finally, let me share with you some thoughts. Have you encountered any problems in decorating or housing, or do you have any good experiences to share? Welcome to leave a message~
