It ensures house buyers do not encounter any nasty shocks and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues, any signs that the house is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

If asbestos is found at 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 price of removal.
