It makes sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
