We examine the entire structure and look for any serious flaws, future or urgent maintenance issues or problems caused by the gradual loss of quality. We search for structural issues and any indications that the house is in need of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until 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.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
