This will ensure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems or any indication that the property has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
