This assures house buyers don’t face unpleasant surprises and provides you with the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

The property is inspected and determine any major defects that could lead to urgent or future maintenance issues and problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We are looking for structural issues, any signs that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas that are damp or mould.

Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
