It makes sure that home buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
