Easily fixed yet costly if ignored....this week in a posh part of Adelaide...
Broken airconditioning ductwork (several like this) is blowing the electricity bill into the roof space. White conduit is draped like spaghetti from one side of the roof to the other - DC solar.

Timber-framed buildings clad with fibre-cement sheet are a widespread, low-cost and simple form of construction. Getting a nice clean, modern rendered finish is fairly straightforward, but achieving long-term durability depends on good framing practices and correct (to maker's specifications or better) detailing of the cladding to prevent moisture entering the building frame.
Once moisture enters timber, it starts to move, distorting the cladding and fixings (see popping nail heads) and risking more leaks. The townhouse pictured probably shares its problems with the whole group. Some opening-up will be necessary to check for framing damage and to identify and rectify the root cause(s) before making good the cladding.

"David was easy to deal with and provided a thorough report, detailing many areas to note. The report was ready very quickly after the inspection. David was more than happy to chat to me over the phone after I’d read the report and answer some questions I had."
