It assures home buyers don’t face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
