We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
