This assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
