We check for structural issues and any indications that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
