It will ensure that house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprise and offers you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or signs that the house is a leaky building or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint and areas where there is damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
