Summary
The house is in normal condition for its age, but three items need attention soon. The roof covering has passed half its technical life and shows local damage around penetrations. The ground-floor bathroom has no documentation for its waterproofing layer, which is the single largest financial risk. The crawl space has elevated moisture with early microbial growth on the subfloor. The remaining findings are maintenance that can be planned over a few years.
- Roof
Damage around roof penetrations and ageing roof tiles
18,000 kr β 45,000 krVisual inspection from a ladder showed cracked concrete tiles next to the chimney and dried, loosening sealant against the metal flashing. The underlay felt appears to date from the year of construction and has therefore passed its normal technical life. Risk of moisture ingress into the attic floor during driving rain. Should be addressed before the coming autumn.
Cost note: The lower range covers a local repair at the penetrations. The upper range applies if the underlay felt needs replacing on the southern half of the roof. Suggested trade: Roofer
- Wet rooms
Ground-floor bathroom β undocumented waterproofing
120,000 kr β 190,000 krSurfaces are intact and moisture readings in adjoining spaces were negative. However, there is no quality certificate, wet-room documentation or photographic record, and the floor drain appears older than the surface layers. Without documentation the waterproofing cannot be verified, which affects both insurance cover and liability in the event of future damage.
Cost note: Covers a full renovation of a 6 mΒ² bathroom including new waterproofing, floor drain and surfaces. No immediate action required, but the risk should be priced into the bid. Suggested trade: Wet-room contractor
- Foundation
Elevated moisture and early growth in the crawl space
25,000 kr β 60,000 krThe crawl space is ventilated with outdoor air and has no dehumidifier. Measurements showed 82 % RH, above the threshold for microbial growth in summer. Dark staining is present on the subfloor in the northern section, and ground sheeting is partly missing. Action within 6β12 months is recommended to prevent further growth.
Cost note: A dehumidifier including installation typically falls in the lower range. Remediating existing growth and new ground sheeting pushes toward the upper end. Suggested trade: Damp specialist / remediation firm
- Electrical
Consumer unit without a residual-current device
6,000 kr β 14,000 krThe consumer unit is functional but lacks a residual-current device, which does not meet today's safety level. No full electrical inspection was carried out as part of the survey.
Cost note: Adding a residual-current device. Replacing the whole unit costs more. Suggested trade: Electrician
- Ground and drainage
Drainage appears to be original
90,000 kr β 180,000 krThe drainage appears to date from the year of construction and has passed its normal technical life. At the rear the ground slopes toward the house, directing surface water to the foundation wall. Plan work within 1β3 years; simple regrading can be done straight away.
Cost note: Re-drainage around the whole house. Regrading and new downpipe outlets alone cost a few thousand kronor. Suggested trade: Groundworks contractor
- Windows
Windows on the south facade β dried-out putty
15,000 kr β 35,000 krThe paint finish on the south-facing windows is worn and the putty is dried out on several sashes. No rot damage was found when probing. Maintenance painting within 1β3 years.
Cost note: Six sashes, scraping, re-puttying and two coats. Doing it yourself brings it down to material cost. Suggested trade: Painter

Subject: Quote request: damage around roof penetrations Hello, I'm looking at a house in the area and the inspection found cracked roof tiles at the chimney and sealing against the flashing that has come loose. The underlay felt looks to be original from 1974. Could you come and take a look, and give me a rough quote for both a local repair at the penetrations and replacing the underlay felt on the southern roof slope? Let me know a time that suits you.
