This makes sure that house buyers don’t face any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
