This assures home buyers don’t have any nasty unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
