The property is inspected and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
