It assures home buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and also gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and identify any significant defects and any urgent maintenance issues or problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is a leaky building, issues caused by deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint or areas with damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
