It assures home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

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

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.
