It ensures house buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
