We inspect the entire building and find any major flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues due to gradual decline. We check for structural issues and any indications that the property has a leaky structure and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
