It ensures house buyers do not face any nasty surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
