We check for structural issues or any indication that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are 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.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
