We search for structural issues, any signs that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
