Thorough Building Inspections Mount Victoria

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re 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: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
