It assures house buyers do not face unpleasant surprises and gives you an opportunity to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We search for structural issues, any signs that the property has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
