We check the entire property and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
