This makes sure that home buyers don’t face any nasty unexpected costs and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
