We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
