Thorough Building Inspections Elderslea

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
