It ensures house buyers don’t have any nasty surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by gradual deterioration.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
