We search for structural issues or signs that the property is in require of repair, issues caused by deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is moisture or mould.

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
