We look for structural problems or any indication that the building is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance like weatherboards becoming rotten because of peeling paint, and areas where there is moisture or mould.

What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
