It will ensure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and provides you with the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed 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 could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth 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 in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
