This will make sure that home buyers don’t have any nasty surprise and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws and any urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
