We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
