This makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprises and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We look for structural problems or signs that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
