This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate a lower cost.

We check for structural issues and any indications that the property is in need of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
