It ensures home buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and also gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or signs that the building has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been 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 to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
