It makes sure that house buyers do not face unpleasant surprise and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues, any signs that the house is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
