We check the entire property and determine any major defects and any urgent maintenance issues and problems due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues, any signs that the property is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
