What we find — so you don't get caught out
Real defects discovered in Adelaide properties. These are the issues that cost buyers thousands when missed.
Structural cracking
Diagonal and step cracking in walls can indicate foundation movement or subsidence — a costly repair if left undetected.
Termite damage
Active termite infestations and prior damage to structural timbers are among the most expensive defects we find.
Roof & water damage
Roof leaks and water ingress cause extensive damage to ceilings, walls, and structural framing over time.
Rising damp & moisture
Moisture penetration at wall junctions and subfloor areas leads to mould, timber decay, and health risks.
Brick & masonry defects
Spalling bricks, cracked mortar, and failed render can allow water ingress and compromise structural integrity.
