Common Problems We Uncover in Berwick Homes
Berwick is known for its beautiful homes but hidden defects can exist in any property. Here are just a few real issues we’ve discovered in local inspections:
- Termite infestations in subfloors and wall cavities, particularly in older timber-framed homes
- Water damage and mould in ceiling spaces due to roof leaks or blocked gutters
- Rotted joists and beams from poor subfloor ventilation and drainage
- Asbestos-containing materials in homes built before the early 2000s
- Dodgy DIY renovations that don’t meet code, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and decks
These problems can cost thousands to fix. A building and pest inspection helps you avoid nasty surprises and make smart choices.
