We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is in require of repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
