This makes sure that home buyers do not face any nasty unexpected costs and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
