It ensures home buyers do not face unpleasant unexpected costs and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance problems and issues that are caused by the gradual degradation. We look for structural problems, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas with damp or mould.

Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
