This will ensure that home buyers do not face any nasty shocks and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems and any indications that the building is not in good repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
