We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: 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, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
