This will ensure that home buyers don’t face unpleasant shocks and offers you an opportunity to negotiate lower cost.

We check the entire property and determine any major defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We look for structural problems and any indications that the house has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing.
