Thorough Building Inspections Elderslea

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
