We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
