Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
