The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are 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 household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
