This will ensure that home buyers do not encounter unpleasant shocks and gives you the opportunity to negotiate a lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and identify any significant defects as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues and problems caused by the gradual loss of quality.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
