We examine the entire structure and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

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, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
