This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

We check for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
