This makes sure that house buyers do not encounter any nasty surprise and provides you with an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues or any indication that the building is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
