It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant shocks and provides you with the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
