This assures house buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and offers you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues, any signs that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
