Building inspection
Bouwkeuring Limburg is your local specialist for carrying out a building inspection. Because the housing market is in flux and a top price is often paid for a home, it is important to have your home inspected.
A “building inspection” gives you more information about the structural condition and initially hidden defects of the home.
The property will be professionally and visually inspected. After which you also receive a complete report including a maintenance plan.
An inspection during a viewing
Nowadays you have to make many decisions during a viewing. You often don't get a chance to schedule a second viewing. The building inspection is then quickly cancelled. But it is of course important to know the structural condition of your new home.
Call BKL to check the structural condition of the house together with you during the viewing. This way the points of attention and the repair work are discussed. As a result, it will be easier to make a bid on the house.
Immediately you have a good view of the structural condition of the house and an objective eye!
However, no report will be drawn up for an inspection during a viewing.

Inspection method
I prefer to carry out the inspection in your presence. In this way you immediately get an impression of the condition of the above items, which is taken into account during the building inspection. The final inspection report then gives you much more insight into the structural condition of your new home.
A building inspection is purely visual and non-destructive. If asbestos is accidentally found during the investigation, this will of course be mentioned in the construction report. However, the inspection is not an asbestos inventory. Any hidden defects that become visible after the removal of wall finishes, trim etc. also fall outside the scope of this visual architectural inspection.
Inspection report
The final result of technical building inspections is a so-called inspection report. You will not only receive this digitally in your mailbox, but it is also available in your own home dashboard. This housing dashboard includes photos of any defects, a detailed analysis of the structural condition of the house and costs within 1 year and 5 years.
BKL's construction reports are recognized by the National Mortgage Guarantee (NHG) and Stichting Waarborgfonds Eigen Woningen.
