It ensures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
