The property is inspected and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint, and areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
