We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in need of repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
