This will ensure that house buyers don’t have any nasty shocks and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We search for structural issues or any indication that the building is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance such as weatherboards rotting due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
