This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is in require of repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built 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 in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
