This ensures house buyers don’t have unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We search for structural issues and any indications that the building is in require of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
