Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
