We check for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
