This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems due to gradual decline.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
