This will ensure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws and any urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems, any signs that the building is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
