We are looking for structural issues and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
